HI
Well come to HCM
Appreciate that
Hypotension (low Blood pressure so called ) can not be it self, because this is very typical one and happens for just few moments and person recovered from it without any medication, in serious condition this is medical emergency,
Advise:
Perito (Cyproheptadine ) is not good for health and it should never be given without any clinical evidence
Treatment:
Encourage her for drinking more water, and keep her moral high, take care.
