Hypertension Follow-Up Online
Already on blood pressure medication? Get your routine follow-up done online with a licensed healthcare professional.
A blood pressure follow-up isn't just a refill — it checks for new symptoms, medication side effects, adherence, and home monitoring before deciding whether your regimen needs any change. Anything suggesting a stroke, heart, or hypertensive emergency is screened for first and referred immediately rather than handled as a routine adjustment.
Newly diagnosed, or not diagnosed yet? This assessment is for people already being treated for high blood pressure. Start a general visit instead and the clinical team will take it from there.

Quick Self-Check
Answer a few quick questions. This isn't a diagnosis — a real clinical assessment is the next step either way.
How We Work
A Care365 clinical reviews your current regimen, home blood pressure readings, and any side effects. A dry cough attributed to an ACE inhibitor typically resolves by switching to an ARB like losartan without losing efficacy; new or worsening swelling is assessed for heart failure rather than assumed to be routine; and pregnancy (confirmed or possible) triggers an urgent switch off any ACE inhibitor or ARB, since these are not safe in pregnancy.

What Our healthcare professionals Can Assess
Side-Effect Check
A dry cough (ACE inhibitor), leg/ankle swelling (calcium channel blocker), dizziness, or fatigue are each reviewed and can guide a medication switch.
Home BP Review
How you're checking your blood pressure at home, and how well controlled it's felt, shapes whether your regimen needs any change.
Adherence Check
Missed doses, cost, or complexity are addressed directly — poor control often has a simple, correctable cause.
Safety Screening
Stroke-type symptoms, chest pain, new swelling, or pregnancy are each screened for and referred immediately if present, rather than treated as routine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this just a prescription refill?
No — it's a real follow-up review. Your healthcare professional checks for side effects, how you're taking your medication, your home readings, and any new symptoms before deciding your regimen is fine as-is or needs adjusting.
I have a dry cough — is that from my medication?
A dry cough is a known effect of ACE inhibitors. If that fits your situation, switching to an ARB like losartan usually resolves it without losing blood pressure control.
What if I've been missing doses?
That's addressed directly and without judgment — cost, side effects, or a complicated regimen are common, fixable reasons for missed doses, and they're explored before assuming your dose needs to go up.
When does this need emergency care instead of a routine follow-up?
A severe headache unlike your usual, chest pain, shortness of breath, sudden weakness or numbness, trouble speaking, or vision changes are all stroke or cardiac red flags that need urgent in-person or emergency assessment, not a routine medication review.
What if I'm pregnant or could be?
This needs an urgent medication review — ACE inhibitors and ARBs aren't safe in pregnancy and are switched to a pregnancy-safe alternative right away.
