My dad had BP fluctuations and orthostatic hypotension. Dizzy/ passed out and fell quite a few times after getting up from table after a meal.
We tried some protien drink first thing in the morning nd that helped, many of his falls where in the morning after breakfast.
Those falls were different from the freeze falls when meds wore off.

As dad got into his 80is we found some meds were causing more issues than benefits. Dr said it is a balancing actt, Removing the problem ones and keeping the main ones is the main goal.

Our site search tool can find past posted info on meds, symptoms also.
