At this age of 72 ,he should be staying at home in this scorching heat ..
Avoid sending ur father in daylight to prevent him from heat exhaution ..
When the body is severely dehydrated ,it can fluctuate BP and lowers BP ..
If ur father's basline BP is below 110/80 then cautiouly , BP medications (Stamlo 5mg)need to be tapered or stopped with consultation of ur regular doctor whom u consult..

Hi, fluctuating BP after heat exhaustion and dehydration is common.
The readings are mostly in safe range.
Garlic with honey can be continued as a supportive habit, but don't skip prescribed medicines.
Feel free to consult for further guidance. 👍
