Psychiatrist 's  Response
Generally, medicines for hypertension (high BP) do not cause drowsiness or impaired alertness or forgetfulness. It is possible that he was given an anti-anxiety medicine along with anti-hypertensives. Anti-anxiety medicines can cause drowsiness.
You should tell your doctor about this problem and check side effects of medicines.
If the problem persists, you should consult a psychiatrist.
I hope this answers your question.
