A member asked:

Which class of hypertension medications have the lowest amount of side effects, especially for dizziness? which class is known to produce this effect?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hypertension: All anti hypertensives can cause this. The more potent the agent the more potential dizziness in general.
