A member asked:
Is a blood pressure of 140 normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal varies: Normal blood pressure (BP) is up to 140/90 for most, and less than 130/80 for those with diabetes &kidney disease. Those with heart disease or high risk for heart disease may also benefit from lower bp's . Within the normal range, those with lower bp's seem to better than those with higher values, but we have no data supporting lowering BP within the normal range with meds. See your doctor.
