What is High Blood Pressure ?

High blood pressure, otherwise known as hypertension is one of the major contributors of stroke and coronary heart disease.

Hypertension affects up to 25% of the population, including an estimated 50% of the Irish population aged over 50 years. As you get older, you're more likely to have high blood pressure.

Most people with high blood pressure do not have any symptoms, which is why many people remain undiagnosed. Here at Cobh Pharmacy, we hope to make a significant healthcare impact by raising awareness to improve the detection, monitoring and treatment of heart blood pressure to ultimately help more people bring their readings back to a healthy range.
