General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I think should send to Emergency. Keep monitoring his blood pressure and give water with oral replacement salt. He might overdose his BP medications.

Give him a coffee meanwhile. Should reconsider his current therapy and health status.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Albana Sejdini,
