Brunei: PCMF - July Health Promotion: High Blood Pressure

Know the numbers


Controlling blood pressure 

If your blood pressure is in the normal range, stick with heart-healthy habits such as following a balanced diet and getting regular exercise. 

If your blood pressure is elevated (HTN stage 1 and stage 2), work with your health care professional to control the condition. 

In hypertensive crisis, you need medical attention. 
  • Wait five minutes after your first reading.
  • Take your blood pressure again. 
High blood pressure is a 'silent killer’


If your readings are still unusually high, contact your health care professional immediately.
