Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
It appears that the weakness may be due to the gastric irritation due to the tablets, if they are taken, in empty stomach, it will be still more.
If the B.P rose suddenly, take the readings daily, because it may come down in new comers, and may cause low B.P and weakness.
I advise you to consult your doctor for follow up.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms omeprazole, domperidone, and antacid gel to counter the gastric irritation.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
