Abstract
In the last issue of Blood Pressure Monitoring, (James K, Dolan E, O'Brien E. Making ambulatory blood pressure monitoring accessible in pharmacies. Blood Press Monit 2014;19:134-139) elegantly reported for the first time the characteristics of patients attending pharmacies for ambulatory blood pressure measurement (ABPM) and showed that they were similar to those undergoing ABPM through primary care practices. The authors concluded that pharmacies could be a valuable resource to perform ABPM.
In the continuity of this study, we would like to emphasize the results of recent studies as well as recommenda-tions of pharmacist involvement in the management of hypertension, more specifically in a team approach.
