Brief Answer:
What are you blood pressure values?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I have reviewed the information completely. Either low sugar of excessively low blood pressure cause by carvedilol is responsible for these symptoms. I will suggest that you measure your blood pressure and blood glucose during these episodes and report the values to us. You are taking the maximum and full strength dosage of carvedilol and this may be the most likely cause.

For now, please report your blood pressure values 1hour after taking carvedilol for assessment and more insights.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
