    The answer to this question would be: No prescription change

    In orthostatic hypotension, the patient might undergo a temporary hypotension when moving position from lying to sitting or standing. The rate of hypotension can be examined by blood pressure or the heart rate. In this patient, the change in heart rate and blood pressure is not too high so the prescription doesn't need to be changed.
