Dear sir
Increased heart rate and decreased blood pressure will cause light headedness.
Secondly low blood pressure should be analysed for ejection fraction which should be more than 60%.
Thirdly betablockers which have cardioselectivity in property control blood pressure.
So consult a cardiologist and you might be adviced to start ionotropics like digoxin.
Thanks
