Standing for a long time can make you dizzy when you are that far along. Pressure from your uterus on your lower half decreases venous blood return and can make you feel dizzy. There isn't really any medication for it during pregnancy because it may raise your BP. Just try taking breaks and make sure you're drinking enough fluids.
