Brief Answer:
Too low for someone being treated for high blood pressure!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this low BP. It is too low for someone being treated for high BP. Please, talk to your doctor and let I’m consider reducing the dose of the nadolol as it seems to drop by BP to very low and dangerous values. I will like your blood pressure to be somewhere around 120/80.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
