IMPORTANT:
Do not be alarmed by temporarily high or low readings because
fluctuations in a person’s blood pressure are not uncommon. If possible,
measure and record your blood pressure at the same time every day,
and consult your physician if you have questions or concerns.
If abnormal variations in blood pressure are observed in measurement,
please consult your physician.
