Because of unforeseen circumstances i will be unable to pick up my dogs medicine (Enapril) and that would mean she missed a day and 2 doses her morning and night. Is this really bad? Will missing a dose spike up her blood pressure Again and put her in danger of going blind? She has kidney disease but looks great

Hello. Do not worry. Missing a dose or two will not set Nyla back nor worsen her condition. Kidney disease & the subsequent blood pressure problems are both chronic conditions, so a few missed doses, while not ideal, will really do her no harm. Just resume the medication as soon as you can. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
