It is possible that your low blood pressure is due to a combination of both the steroid medication (Wysolone) and the blood pressure medication (Cilacar D). Steroids can sometimes cause fluid retention and electrolyte imbalances, which may lead to changes in blood pressure. Additionally, Cilacar D is a medication that helps lower blood pressure, so taking it along with Wysolone may further decrease your blood pressure.
It is important to consult with your healthcare provider immediately about your symptoms, especially considering the chest discomfort and dizziness. They will be able to assess the situation and determine if any adjustments to your medications are necessary. In the meantime, it may be helpful to avoid sudden changes in position, stay hydrated, and monitor your blood pressure regularly.
