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.
Screening for Cholesterol Disorders — $35
