Depends on associated symptoms. Lie flat and recheck BP
If you sense your blood pressure dropping (you feel lightheaded, vision is getting dark, hearing is distant, you feel sweaty), it’s best to get down (head lower than your heart) or lay down so you don’t pass out. Staying hydrated and eating salty products can help increase your blood pressure. Check with your doctor before increasing your salt intake.
