Furthermore, regular self-checks will be necessary.
With blood-pressure values that are too low, i.e. systolic values under 100 mmHg and/or diastolic values

self-check with your blood-pressure monitor is recommended. In this way you can detect possible changes
in your values early and react appropriately. If you are undergoing medical treatment to control your blood
pressure, please keep a record of the level 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 doses prescribed by your doctor.
