10 Causes of Low Blood Pressure
Cause #4: Nausea
Nausea is defined as an unpleasant sensation where there is discomfort and an urge to vomit. While there is no pain, it can be a debilitating symptom with a great impact on the patient’s quality of life. Nausea is the body’s natural way in trying to dissuade the individual from repeating whatever has caused the unpleasant sensation as it may be harmful to the body.
Nausea is a common and non-specific symptom which can be seen in hypoglycemia, hypotension, motion sickness, fainting, migraines, pregnancy, food poisoning, gastroenteritis, and more. It is a symptom that can be managed using antiemetics such as promethazine, ondansetron, and metoclopramide.
