Many processes run unconsciously in the body. These include breathing and digestion, for example. The heartbeat or blood pressure are also adjusted independently by the body. These processes are controlled by certain nerves. Nerves transmit information in the body.

You have taken a medication that affects several nerves in the body. Several organs are also influenced by this. These include the heart or the lungs, for example. The heart should beat more slowly with this medication, for example.

If you have taken too much of the medication your blood pressure may be too low. The symptoms depend on how much the body has been damaged by the medication, among other things. Severe illness is also possible.
