Hello doc my question is, what is the home made medication given for hypotension and hypertension patients in an emergency.

There is not one: I am not aware of anything you can make it home that would be useful for emergency treatment of blood pressure problems.

Limited: These emergencies are usually not treated without doctors advice. But if there is a serious bee sting or peanut allergy that causes hypotension, people can be prescribed an Epipen (epinephrine) to keep at home.
