What to do about low blood pressure if i'm sick with a cold?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usual: Eat well, drink plenty of fluids to raise your blood pressure. It should be okay to take otc meds that contain decongestants, which might actually help raise your blood pressure a little bit and help you feel better while you recover.
