Hypotension

Constitutional homoeopathic care for chronic low blood pressure — supporting adrenal-cortical tone, improving vascular responsiveness and addressing constitutional asthenia.

Cardiac & Vascular

Understanding Hypotension

Hypotension is BP <90/60 mmHg — may be asymptomatic or cause fatigue, dizziness, syncope, blurred vision, cold extremities, exercise intolerance, cognitive fog. Types: orthostatic (postural drop ≥20/10 mmHg), postprandial, neurally mediated (vasovagal), constitutional (chronic low-normal), secondary (adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism, heart failure, medications, dehydration, sepsis). Orthostatic hypotension: autonomic failure (primary: MSA, PAF; secondary: diabetes, Parkinson's, amyloidosis) or volume depletion. Chronic constitutional hypotension often familial, thin build, low vascular tone.

Homoeopathy treats the constitutional hypotensive terrain — remedies selected by modalities (standing, heat, exertion, fasting, menses), associated symptoms (fatigue, coldness, palpitations, anxiety, craving salt/sweet), body habitus, adrenal/thyroid status and miasmatic psoric/tubercular tendency. Treatment supports adrenal-cortical glucocorticoid/mineralocorticoid output, improves vascular alpha-adrenergic responsiveness, enhances venous return (muscle pump, splanchnic reserve) and addresses autonomic dysregulation. Non-pharmacological: salt/fluid loading, compression stockings, head-up tilt sleeping, small frequent meals, slow position changes.

How Homoeopathy Helps

  • • Supports adrenal cortical tone (cortisol, aldosterone)
  • • Improves vascular alpha-adrenergic responsiveness
  • • Enhances venous return and splanchnic vascular reserve
  • • Reduces orthostatic drop and syncopal episodes
  • • Addresses postprandial and neurally mediated hypotension
  • • Improves exercise tolerance and cognitive clarity

Common Presentations Treated

  • Constitutional chronic hypotension
  • Orthostatic hypotension (autonomic / volume)
  • Postprandial hypotension (elderly)
  • Neurally mediated / vasovagal syncope
  • Drug-induced (anti-hypertensives, diuretics)
  • Adrenal insufficiency / hypothyroidism associated
  • Consultation Process

    1. 01 BP assessment: supine, sitting, standing (3 min), postprandial, 24-hr pattern
    2. 02 Autonomic testing: Valsalva, deep breathing, tilt table if syncope recurrent
    3. 03 Secondary exclusion: cortisol, ACTH, TSH, HbA1c, electrolytes, ECG, echo
    4. 04 Constitutional remedy + salt/fluid, compression, head-up tilt, meal frequency
    5. 05 Follow-up 4–6 weeks: orthostatic tolerance, symptom score, functional capacity

    When to Seek Care

    Syncope with injury, seizure-like activity, chest pain, dyspnoea, palpitations — cardiac/neurological workup. Acute hypotension (sepsis, haemorrhage, anaphylaxis, adrenal crisis) — emergency. New orthostatic symptoms in elderly — medication review, fall risk assessment. Adrenal crisis (hypotension, hyponatraemia, hyperkalaemia, abdominal pain) — IV hydrocortisone, fluids.

    Essential: Constitutional hypotension is benign if asymptomatic. Symptomatic = treat. Always exclude secondary causes first.
