Study Summary

This trial will test if there is a difference in blood pressure after drinking 16 oz of water in the morning versus the afternoon.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for individuals who experience orthostatic intolerance, which means they feel dizzy or lightheaded when standing up due to low blood pressure. Pregnant individuals cannot participate.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study aims to determine if drinking 16 fluid ounces of water affects blood pressure differently in the morning compared to the afternoon, challenging the belief that there's no variation.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Drinking water typically has minimal side effects. However, some people might experience discomfort from ingesting a large volume at once or very rarely, water intoxication if consumed in excessive amounts.
