Blood Pressure
Do you have high blood pressure? Visit our pharmacy today to check your blood pressure.
High blood pressure is an illness that is often not felt, and if left untreated it can lead to strokes and heart attacks. Factors that increase your risk for heart disease include obesity, smoking, physical inactivity, age and family history.
Our pharmacies offer free blood pressure checks using automated kiosks that allow you to track your blood pressure history and report it to your health care professional. We encourage you to talk with our pharmacists about your blood pressure readings. Our pharmacists can also assess your risk for heart disease and provide you with valuable information to help maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Cholesterol
Do you or someone you know have high cholesterol, or at risk for heart disease? Ask us about our cholesterol screenings. All adults, age 40 and up should have their cholesterol test every three months.
- Total Lipid Profile - Total Cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, and glucose (fasting)
- Total cholesterol screening (non-fasting)
A Total Cholesterol Test measures all the cholesterol in your blood. Cholesterol is a soft, waxy substance, found in all parts of the body. Your body needs a little bit of cholesterol to work properly, but too much can clog your arteries and lead to heart disease. The Total Cholesterol Test is a screening tool used to determine your risk for Coronary Artery Disease. If your total cholesterol values are too high, you should have your healthcare provider perform a cholesterol breakdown, including HDL and LDL.
