Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I think the fatigued and lighheadedness you have comes from hypotension. Hypotension is caused by drugs you are taking. Maybe you need some time to get used to it. Keep yourself hydrated. If it still continues go to your doctor to change drugs or lower dose.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
