Get your blood pressure, checked in-store today quickly and accurately.

You can learn a lot about your health from your blood pressure. We can assist you with the early diagnosis and treatment of hypertension and other health issues.

Reduce the risk of a heart attack or stroke by getting your blood pressure checked today.

Blood pressure readings are the only way to determine if you have high blood pressure, sometimes known as the "silent killer." Since patients with hypertension (high blood pressure) often have no symptoms, you may have high blood pressure without being aware of it.

In a severe form of hypertension, symptoms like headaches, bleeding from the nose, and shortness of breath are common.

Do you have concerns about how to monitor your blood pressure? Don't have a blood pressure monitor at home, or aren't sure how to read your results? We're here to help.

Our professional team of pharmacists is here for you.

A professional taking your blood pressure ensures that the procedure is carried out with care. Get your results right away with expert help on a corrective treatment if you have high blood pressure.

Being proactive is life-saving.

Did you know that high blood pressure is the third biggest health threat, after smoking and bad diet?

You can lead a normal life if high blood pressure is detected early. In fact, with proper treatment, your chances of having a stroke are the same as someone with normal blood pressure.

Sooner the better

Our testing service will ensure early detection so you can avoid adverse health complications down the line.

Accurate results

Our blood pressure measurement machines have been validated for clinical accuracy.

24-hr BP monitoring (ABPM)

If you are detected with high blood pressure, we provide you with a device that will measure your BP for the next 24 hrs.

Approximately 5.5 million people have undetected hypertension nationwide. You may be one of them.

I have used the services of this pharmacy recently and found it to be a most user friendly operation. The knowledgeable staff offer a friendly and efficient customer service. This pharmacy offers many services which others do not and is certainly a major asset both to the NHS and Letchworth Garden City.

FAQs

What causes high blood pressure?

Hypertension can have no symptoms, but some causes of this cardiovascular disease could be low activity, unhealthy dieting lifestyle, obesity, genetics, and age.

What is normal blood pressure?

According to the Joint National Committee on Prevention, Detection, Evaluation, and Treatment of High Blood Pressure, a normal blood pressure is when your results estimate a top (systolic) pressure of less than 120 and a bottom (diastolic) pressure of less than 80.

How do I know if I have high blood pressure?

The only way you can be diagnosed with high blood pressure is through regular checkups. You can do your checkups at one of our pharmacies and get advice on the best practices from our professional team of pharmacists.

What is the treatment for high blood pressure?

Besides medication from your doctor, shifting to a healthier lifestyle goes hand in hand with treating or managing high blood pressure. It is advised that you stay away from stress, smoking and alcohol. Exercising, fixing your diet, lowering your salt intake, and losing weight in case of obesity all support maintaining normal blood pressure.

What is an ABPM?

Your GP may suggest 24-hour or Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring (ABPM) if they think you may have high blood pressure (hypertension). ABPM tests your blood pressure over 24 hours by using a cuff attached to a portable device worn on your waist. You can continue your daily activities during this time and check your blood pressure at home regularly.
