Brief Answer: Hi and welcome to HCm Detailed Answer: It can be side effect of bisoprolol but also it can be hypotension period caused by antihypertensive drug. You need to reduce dosage and before taking the pill you should measure BP. if bp is less than 130, you should not take bisoprolol since it will cause too much BP fall which can lead to symptoms that you ve mentioned. Wish you good health. Feel free to ask. Regards
