Default Oil Pressure/ a/c

I have a 2000 Jeep Cherokee Laredo.... When I come to a stop with my a/c on, the oil pressure drops to 10-15. And the motor loses power and runs really rough... Any suggestions???

Thanks!!!

It sounds like the idle air control motor is not correcting for the extra load, or the A/C compressor might be seizing. With the engine off see if you can spin the clutch on the compressor by hand.
