Some medications can cause postural hypotension. Take a list of your medications to your doctor including any herbal supplements or beverages and ask whether stopping or switching your medicine might help with your symptoms. Never stop taking your medicine without your doctor's supervision. Common medications that cause hypotension are those that treat high blood pressure and heart problems (diuretics, alpha-blockers, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, ACE inhibitors, and nitrates). Sometimes lowering the dose you take can ease symptoms. Other medications that can cause hypotension as a side effect are some antidepressants and antipsychotics, drugs for Parkinson's disease, muscle relaxants, narcotics, and medicines for erectile dysfunction. The medication fludrocortisone raises your blood pressure by increasing how much fluid there is in your blood. For severe, persistent symptoms, this medication can be helpful. See your doctor to discuss this medication, and get a prescription for it. Medications are only prescribed for chronic, i.e. persistent rather than occasional, orthostatic hypotension. This medication also increases your blood pressure, making it far less likely you'll experience orthostatic hypotension. Remember that all medications may have side effects. Midodrine may cause you to have high blood pressure when you lie down. Discuss this risk with your healthcare provider. If a specific disease is causing your postural hypotension, then taking the right medication may help. You doctor can prescribe one of these with other medications to treat the underlying cause: Droxidopa (Northera) is used when Parkinson's disease causes your orthostatic hypotension. Epoetin (Epogen, Procrit) can help if the problem is due to chronic anemia. Pyridostigmine (Regonol, Mestinon) can be helpful for those with neurological problems, and unlike midodrine it doesn't cause hypertension when you lie down. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories (NSAIDs) can be used, as well, but not if you have kidney problems. Low blood sugar and diabetes can cause hypotension. If you're diabetic, work with your doctor, endocrinologist, or diabetes nurse to keep your blood sugar in a safe range. Low blood sugar can be just as dangerous as high blood sugar, if not more so. If you're not diagnosed as diabetic but you often have postural hypotension, discuss your symptoms with your doctor and have your blood sugar and A1C checked.

One-sentence summary -- Stop taking medications that cause low blood pressure. Get a prescription for fludrocortisone (Florinef). Try midodrine (ProAmatine). Discuss other medication options with your doctor. Control your blood sugar.

Q: Many packaged beard oils and conditioners list eucalyptus oil as a primary ingredient. You don't have to limit yourself to just oils, either. There is also a wide range of shampoos, conditioners, pomades and waxes available that include essential oils.With frequent use, these products can add smooth luster to your beard while keeping it looking thick and full. Most products are made up of a combination of oils, each formulated to promote a specific set of attributes. Trade in products that use harsh chemicals for more wholesome essential oils. Stir 15 to 30 drops of eucalyptus oil into your carrier oil of choice. Place the homemade oil mixture into a jar or squirt bottle and store it in the bathroom where you shower for ease of application. In addition to eucalyptus oil, you can include other essential oils in your own proprietary blend. Argan oil, for instance, can strengthen individual hair follicles, while tea tree oil relieves itch and grapeseed and jojoba oils soften and hydrate. For a more soothing beard oil that will feed and deep-conditioner your facial hair, try adding a few ounces of coconut oil to eucalyptus, argan and tea tree oil. Get in the habit of rubbing a few drops of eucalyptus oil into your beard after every shower. Essential oils are gentle enough to be used as part of your daily hygiene routine, and they'll provide benefits that most shampoos and conditioners won't. Stocking up on a ready supply of eucalyptus oil will keep you from running out after a couple short weeks.
A: Look for products containing eucalyptus oil. Make your own beard oil at home. Condition your beard with eucalyptus oil regularly.

Article: If you can sense that your friend does not want to talk about something, turn the conversation back to the activity you originally planned, or suggest a new activity. It is not your job to be funny or interesting. Experts say that the conversations that people find the most interesting are the ones where they are able to talk about their own interests the most. All you have to do is ask your friend about what interests them, and listen carefully, so you can ask follow-up questions. If your activities don't work out, suggest something that you usually like to do. If all else fails, take a walk or get food. Don't let changes ruin the visit. Remember that some of the best visits are not centered around an activity at all. Activities are really just an excuse to hang out and talk. If the two of you are having a good time without doing the activity, don't rush into doing it. If the conversation ever runs out, the activity will be a good way to break the silence. Don't expect to be best friends as soon as the visit is over. Just be confident in the fact that you were able to successfully ask someone over, and keep doing it until it becomes second nature.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Don't let a moment of awkwardness ruin the visit. Be flexible and spontaneous. Remember that some friendships take time to grow.
