Hypertension is blood pressure that’s higher than normal. Your blood pressure will change throughout the day, but having consistently high blood pressure can damage blood vessels and put you at risk of complications like heart attack and stroke.

High blood pressure is common, but most people don’t even know they have it. If you’re concerned, stop by and speak with our pharmacist. They can take your blood pressure and let you know when it’s time to see your doctor.

Check out this information from Hypertension Canada on what you need to know about high blood pressure and your health:

If you catch a cold, that probably spells the sniffles, possibly a fever, body aches, and just generally being under the weather.
You should feel better in one to two weeks. In the meantime, there are a number of nasal drops and sprays, mild pain relievers and cough and cold medications that might help with your symptoms.
Ask our pharmacist about over-the-counter options that may be right for you.
