Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Syncope and passing put feeling in patient on antihypertensive drugs can be due to
1. Hypotension due to over dosing of antihypertensive drugs
2. Brain pathology like transirnt ischemic attacks (TIA) or infarction
3. Absence seizure.
So better to first consult your doctor and get done blood pressure monitoring.
Then consult neurologist and get done clinical examination, MRI brain and EEG (electro encephalo gram) to rule out brain related problems.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
