Did you know that regularly checking your blood pressure at home may help lower your risk of heart attack and stroke?

New research found that people with high blood pressure who monitored their readings at home—and shared those results with their healthcare provider—experienced better blood pressure control and fewer serious cardiovascular events.

If you have high blood pressure or are at risk, talk with your healthcare provider about whether home monitoring is right for you.
