A member asked:

I fainted for no reason but i am on blood pressure meds and i have a bad sinus headache?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe due to meds: If your blood pressure meds are too potent, a drop in blood pressure may occur on standing. In some pts, intense pain elicits a vasovagal response causing a faint. Have your doctor get this fully assessed.
