A member asked:
Resting(sittng) bp - 117/75 heart rate is 75. while standing bp is 95/72 and heart rate is 98-105. why is it so?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Orthostatic: This much change in BP between sitting and standing is known as orthostatic hypotension. Orthostatic hypotension can be caused by some disease states or by certain medications. The most common cause is dehydration. You should drink plenty of fluids (without caffeine or alcohol). If you remain orthostatic you should see medical attention. In the meantime, be very careful when standing up.
