Permanently high blood pressure values can damage your
health and must be treated by your doctor!
Always discuss your values with your doctor and tell him/her if
you have noticed anything unusual or feel unsure.
Never rely
on single blood pressure readings.
Under no circumstances should you alter the dosages of
drugs or initiate a treatment without consulting your doctor.
Deviations
between measurements taken by your doctor or in
the pharmacy and those taken at home are quite normal, as
these situations are completely different.
The pulse display is not suitable for checking the
frequency of heart pacemakers!
If you are
pregnant
, you should monitor your blood pressure
regularly as it can change drastically during this time.
Ensure that children do not use this device unsupervised;

the risk of strangulation in case this device is supplied with
