I understand your concern.
Your friend is having hypertension and she is on medication. But according to you she feels dizziness. This may be due to improper dose of antihypertensive drug. My advice is your friend should consult your physician may correct the dose.
It is advisable that she undergoes her Hemoglobin and blood sugar test, ECG done. Low hemoglobin level or Low sugar can also cause these symptoms.
Meanwhile she is advised to take adequate sleep, drinks lots of water, eat fruits.
