Living with high blood pressure (hypertension)
General information — not medical advice
Emergency? Call your local emergency number now (for example
911 in the US and Canada,
999 in the UK,
112 in the EU and Nigeria) or go to the nearest hospital. 3TABZ is not an emergency or medical service.
General information — not medical advice. Always follow your doctor or pharmacist.
High blood pressure is common in Nigeria: a 2021 review estimated that about 3 in 10 adults have it — around 27.5 million people in 2020 (Adeloye et al., 2021). Many people feel well and don't know they have it, which is why checking and taking medicines regularly matters.
How 3TABZ can help
- Reminders that work without data, with "I took it" on the lock screen.
- Log your readings and take a doctor report (PDF) or a secure link to your next appointment.
- Refill alerts before you run out — and the pharmacy finder.
- Check combinations: a list of well-known interactions (for example, some pain medicines and blood-pressure medicines) to ask your pharmacist about.
Get help immediately if you have
severe headache with confusion or blurred vision, chest pain, trouble breathing, weakness or numbness on one side, or difficulty speaking. Call 112 or go to hospital.
