Brief Answer:
BP fluctuations will settle in the due course of time.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,

I understand your concern.

Yes blood pressure fluctuations are common with antivertigo medications.

Once the anti vertigo medication course finishes your fluctuations in BP subside.

Continue with your present blood pressure medication and monitor BP regularly.

Restrict salt intake to <6 gm per day.

Post your further queries if any,

Thank you.
