Orthostatic considerations Orthostatic hypotension (a drop of 20 mmHg systolic or 10 mmHg diastolic on standing) can develop during early treatment for several reasons: Reduced fluid intake from nausea Reduced sodium intake from decreased eating Continued full-dose antihypertensive medications as BP drops Volume contraction from weight loss Patients should be counseled to rise slowly, maintain hydration, and contact their clinician if they experience dizziness on standing
Checking with your specific plan's formulary remains essential, as coverage decisions shift quarterly and vary significantly between geographic regions
Review all medications with the prescriber, follow titration instructions carefully and never increase a dose early because weight loss has slowed
