Hello. Thank you for posting.

Low blood pressure that either doesn't cause signs or symptoms or causes only mild symptoms rarely requires treatment. So keep this in mind.

If you have symptoms, treatment depends on the underlying cause. For instance, when low blood pressure is caused by medications, treatment usually involves changing or stopping the medication or lowering the dose.

Depending on your age, health and the type of low blood pressure, ways to raise BP can include:
Using more salt.
Drinking more water.
Taking prescription medications.

You should first discuss your BP readings with your doctor.

Best,
Susan
