Brief Answer:
diazepam can reduce blood pressure in some persons

Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Diazepam can reduce the blood pressure in some persons, the blood pressure reduction may not be significant in everyone.

Sotalol can also cause a reduction in blood pressure, the main possible interaction is the risk of the blood pressure dropping too low but as mentioned the diazepam may not have a significant effect.

You can monitor your blood pressure to see if there are any changes
