Hello,
Let me tell you that if your doctor has prescribed you blood pressure pills,you can not stop it abruptly. If your blood pressure remains on the lower side,you should talk to your doctor because the dose of the medicine needs to be reduced.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Prabhash Verma, General & Family Physician
