First of all BP reading of 102/50 mm Hg is not alarming.
She has been having fever for a few days. Her fluid and food intake might not have been adequate. She has a number of Medical diseases. She has taken Azithromycin and Paracetamol tablets. Any one of these factors could have caused giddiness.
She should be hospitalized for a few days and the complete health package should be done . Treatment will be according to the investigations.
