HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is not the hypertension and still taken medicine then it may cause the hypotension and it is better to stop taking the anti-hypertensive drugs just for couple of days, but most important is let the physician to read the blood pressure, till then it is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
