How To Swallow Your Blood Pressure Pills

Swallowing pills is difficult for some people. This problem swallowing may prevent someone from taking much-needed medication, like blood pressure medication.

You should monitor your blood pressure with a home blood pressure monitor for the most accurate blood pressure measurement. Home blood pressure monitoring is the most important thing that you can do to confirm that your blood pressure warrants treatment.

Your blood pressure measurement severity in the doctor’s office determines if your health care provider recommends blood pressure medication or lifestyle modification. DO NOT fail the opportunity to use lifestyle modification because your healthcare provider will give you blood pressure pills.

See the video below that may help you learn how to swallow your blood pressure medication.
