Yes, switching from Seloken (metoprolol) to Cilacar (cilnidipine), while also taking Olsar (olmesartan), can sometimes cause a sudden drop in blood pressure, especially when standing up. This drop can lead to temporary fainting (syncope). When you lose consciousness, your body's muscles relax completely, which can occasionally cause a temporary loss of bowel control. Your thyroid medicine, Eltroxin (levothyroxine), is unlikely to be the cause. Please discuss this event with your doctor so they can safely monitor and adjust your blood pressure regimen.
