Why is it important to take bp med same time each day? by taking it at various times, can this cause readings to be up or down?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exactly: The goal is for smooth BP control throughout the 24 hours. Many meds are intended for once a day use. By changing the time you take them, you introduce a variable that you don't want.
