The vast majority of patients with hypotension (especially long-term chronic hypotension associated with constitution or genetics) do not have any clinical discomfort, or have only non-specific symptoms such as dizziness, drowsiness, and fatigue. A small number (those with a sharp drop in blood pressure) have clinical symptoms mainly due to insufficient blood supply to the brain, such as dizziness, dark eyes, soft limbs, and even syncope or shock.
