Three common causes of hypotension include dehydration, which reduces blood volume; heart problems, such as bradycardia or heart failure, which can impair the heart's ability to pump blood effectively; and severe infections (septicemia) that can lead to septic shock, causing blood vessels to dilate and blood pressure to drop. Other factors may include significant blood loss from trauma or internal bleeding, as well as certain medications that lower blood pressure.
Yes Hypotension often causes excessive sleep. Excessive sleep often causes puffiness of the face.
Orthostatic Hypotension
because the ADH causes reabsortion of water by the kidneys
I'm not a Doctor, I'm only a EMT... But if i understand it right its the other way around, hypotension causes tachycardia. the less volume you have to pump thru your veins and arteries, the faster your heart has to pump. again, I'm no doc..
Smallpox
Definitely! It causes hypotension and could cause heart faliure. An overdose could be fatal!
In the context of hypotension, orthostatic hypotension is the same as postural hypotension.

This is called hypotension.
