What is high blood pressure? High blood pressure (or hypertension) is when the blood pressure is 140/90 or higher over a number of weeks, even when you are resting.
Your blood pressure usually goes up and down depending on what you’re doing. If your blood pressure stays too high, for too long, then it can cause damage to your body.
People with high blood pressure that is not controlled with medication are at an increased risk of having a stroke, heart attack, heart failure, heart disease and kidney failure due to the extra strain on the body’s organs.
Hypertension rarely has any noticeable symptoms. The only way to find out if your blood pressure is high is to have your blood pressure checked.
Please note, that this service is for people who have not previously been diagnosed with hypertension. If you have hypertension and would like some information please speak to a pharmacist or read our advice on managing high blood pressure.

A pharmacist will measure your blood pressure in a private consultation room. If the reading is high, they may offer you an ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) device to wear. This can automatically measure your blood pressure at regular intervals over a 24 hour period, allowing for a more detailed view of your blood pressure.
