Is Your Blood Pressure Too Low? Understanding Hypotension

Sign up for Better Health While Aging’s newsletter to receive expert, practical health advice from board-certified geriatrician Leslie Kernisan, MD MPH.: https://betterhealthwhileaging.net/fo... Low blood pressure can sound like a good thing, but in older adults, it may lead to symptoms like dizziness, fatigue, or even falls. In this episode of Better Health While Aging, geriatrician Leslie Kernisan, MD MPH, explains what counts as low blood pressure, why it happens in aging, and how to recognize warning signs — especially if you’re caring for aging parents or experiencing these issues yourself. Dr. Kernisan also discusses orthostatic hypotension, a specific type of low blood pressure that happens when standing up, and outlines a practical, step-by-step approach to managing low BP. This includes reviewing medications, monitoring at home, and understanding how blood pressure goals may shift in older age. If you or a loved one have been told your blood pressure is “too low” or you’ve experienced lightheadedness or fainting, this episode will help you better understand what to do next, and how to manage this safely and effectively.
