of your blood pressure by carrying out regular self-measurements at specific times of the day. Show these
values to your doctor. Never use the results of your measurements to alter independently the drug

2.3. What can be done, if regular increased/low values are obtained?
a) Please consult your doctor.
b) Increased blood-pressure values (various forms of hypertension) are associated long- and medium term
with considerable risks to health. This concerns the arterial blood vessels of your body, which are en-
dangered due to constriction caused by deposits in the vessel walls (Arteriosclerosis). A deficient sup-
ply of blood to important organs (heart, brain, muscles) can be the result. Furthermore, with long-term
continuously increased blood-pressure values, the heart will become structurally damaged.
c) There are many different causes of the appearance of high blood pressure. We differentiate between
the common primary (essential) hypertension, and secondary hypertension. The latter group can be
ascribed to specific organic malfunctions. Please consult your doctor for information about the possible
origins of your own increased blood pressure values.
d) There are measures which you can take, not only for reducing a medically established high blood pres-
