What Causes Drop In Blood Pressure?

I have repeatedly over the last 6 months have had episodes where my blood pressure drops to a range of 85-80 over 65-53...it can happen during the day or night. I am on blood pressure meds, but one incident occurred post surgery while in the hospital and after being off BP meds for 3 days my pressure returned to normal.
