Brief Answer:
Multiple Drug Interactions

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thank you for the query.

You seem to be taking multiple drugs including Metformin, Lyrica, Crestor, Sertraline, Antivan along with anti BP medicines Metoprolol and Isosorbide.
You are bound to have interactions by taking multiple drugs which can interact with one another and bound to contribute to adverse dosing.
I believe dizziness can be part of these interactions.
The next thing for you to do is review these medications with the help of your family physician and may be omit the medications which or not required or at least check the right doses.
Please remember poly pill is the most common cause of imbalance in life in an elderly person like you.

Hope this helps.
