Is dizziness a sign of high blood pressure?
Dizziness is not a direct sign of high blood pressure, but is in fact a common symptom of low blood pressure . Dizziness can also occur as a side effect of blood pressure-lowering medications or as a result of some complications of high blood pressure, such as stroke and heart attack.
Uncontrolled hypertension is a serious and important risk factor for stroke, heart disease, and kidney disease. For this reason, it is important to pay attention to your blood pressure and make sure it is at a good level.
