Dealing with Low Blood Pressure Symptoms on Psych Meds

I naturally have low blood pressure and I’m taking some psych meds that make it even lower. Any ideas or remedies I can use to help me deal with symptoms like cold limbs and dizziness?

Exercise, walk around a lot, maybe jog in place, just get your body moving even for a small bit.

I have POTS and compression socks help me regulate my blood pressure better. Not sure if it’ll help in your case but figured I’d throw it out there. If it’s a significant problem I’d consider changing meds. One of the meds I tried lowered my blood pressure so much I couldn’t really be upright so stopped that one ASAP.

When my blood pressure drops I eat salty things, like potato chips, saltine crackers also coffee or caffeine drinks !
