Since you took 2 tablets instead of the 1 tablet per day you take usually, there is a small chance that this will cause your blood pressure to drop more than usual, although most of the times nothing will happen.
Always remember to take the medication as prescribed everyday at the same time, and if you forget to take the prescribed pill one day, just continue with the same dose the next day, DO NOT take 2 tablets the next day to compensate, as this can lead to hypotension ( dropping your blood pressure too low),
As for your question, if you took 2 tabs of the mentioned medication, you must pay attention to symptoms related to low blood pressure, that means; dizziness especially when you're getting up or walking, you must remember to get up slowly when seated, and sit down if you feel any dizziness while walking to prevent a fall, other symptoms may include nausea and vomiting , and sensation of fast heart beats.
It might be helpful also to check your Blood Pressure even if you're not feeling any symptoms.
If your blood pressure is way lower than your usual blood pressure, and/or you have any symptoms as above related to low blood pressure, you must lie down first. Some intake of salt, or salty beverage ( like yogurt drink) may help if blood pressure remains low or the symptoms persist.
Medical assistance may be required if your blood pressure remains low, but in your case, the most likely is that nothing serious will happen, but just remember to take your medications as prescribed next time.
