High Blood Pressure Heart Health Screening — $5

One in four Americans has high blood pressure – And half of them don’t even know it. Uncontrolled, it can lead to stroke, heart attack, kidney damage, and other serious issues. High blood pressure usually has no symptoms. The only way to know if you have high blood pressure is to get checked regularly. Our professional pharmacists make it quick and easy at just $5.

24-Hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring — $75

Bremo Pharmacy provides the only FDA-cleared wearable medical-wrist device used for 24-hour blood pressure monitoring. It is a non-invasive monitor used to measure blood pressure at predefined time periods through the day and night. All results are sent directly to your physician to for medical advice and treatment decisions.

Potential outcomes that you and your provider may consider after your 24-hour blood pressure monitoring results:
• Optimize your medication therapy to minimize your risk for side effects like hypotension
• Replace a medication in your regimen to better target your blood pressure concerns
• Reduce the number of medications needed to keep your blood pressure under control
• Give you a more accurate diagnosis of your white coat or masked hypertension

Screening for Cholesterol Disorders — $35

Do you know your cholesterol level? It’s time to get checked. According to the American Heart Association, everyone over 20 years old should have his or her cholesterol checked at least every five years. Controlling your cholesterol through lifestyle choices or medications helps reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke. Accurate testing requires you abstain from food prior to your cholesterol test, so it’s best to coordinate with one of our pharmacists. Contact us today to schedule your full cholesterol profile for only $35.

Food Sensitivity Testing — Price Varies

Sometimes certain foods can make you feel unwell, regardless if they’re healthy or not.  They may trigger any number of food sensitivity symptoms such as headaches, digestive issues, joint pain or skin problems.  Food sensitivities are largely undiagnosed and seem to be on the rose.  While they are clearly less scary than a full-blown food allergy, these mysterious and highly individualistic conditions can still make us sick.  Bremo uses US Biotek lab for our food sensitivity testing and specifically measures your response to IgG cells only to give you results of food sensitivities you might have, but does not test for food allergies or food intolerance.  Contact us today to learn more or schedule your food sensitivity test.

Diabetes A1C Test— $30.00

Have you had any of these symptoms?

• Frequent urination
• Excessive thirst
• Extreme hunger
• Unusual weight loss
• Increased fatigue
• Irritability
• Blurry vision

If you have one or more of these symptoms, you should come in to get screened for diabetes. We can check your blood sugar levels and assess your risk level for diabetes. Lifestyle choices can help reduce the risk of diabetes, especially the most common form: Type 2 Diabetes.

Accurate testing requires you abstain from food prior to your blood sugar test, so it’s best to coordinate with one of our pharmacists. Contact us today to schedule your A1C test.

Pharmacogenetic Testing

This test, only needed once-in-a-lifetime, gives you pertinent information to ensure you are prescribed the most effective and safest medication. It is based on your ability to metabolize over 600 different medications by testing a panel of 32 pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic genes. Understanding how you metabolize medications and gene/drug interactions can help your physician and pharmacist monitor for efficacy and adverse effects and provide insight into potential therapy modifications.
