✓Take your blood pressure in a comfortable environment - not too cold, not too hot-as temperature may affect your measurement.

✓If you've just consumed beverages containing caffeine such as coffee, non-herbal tea, or cola wait about 30-45 minutes. Also, don’t smoke just before taking a mea- surement.
