An underactive thyroid or overactive thyroid  can cause low blood pressure. In addition, other conditions, such as adrenal insufficiency, low blood sugar, and in some cases, diabetes, can trigger low blood pressure.

You may want to consult with your doctor.  There may be a problem with your medication, your doctor has your health history, any concomitant disorders, possible allergies, etc.  Take care.
