Is it normal to have very low blood pressure while taking meds for high blood pressure?

gameplayer81_99 asked:


I take meds for high blood pressure but I started exercising, and yesterday I had mine checked and it was 97/73, I felt awful. I was just wondering if it is normal for this to happen or do I need to get off the meds.

    high bp—-> meds——-> low bp

    If you’re becoming symptomatic (dizziness, shortness of breath, confusion)from the low bp the meds caused, that’s not good. Meds might need to be adjusted in terms of dose or class or timing. Talk to your doctor.
