Which Medications Require a Blood Pressure Reading Before Being Prescribed?
For certain medications or condition treatments, your clinician may need your most recent blood pressure reading. The NowPatient app uses an innovative, cuffless approach — your smartphone’s front-facing camera measures your blood pressure while held in front of your face. It is the world’s only blood pressure check without a cuff or wearable.
The blood pressure tool is classified as a Medical Device and conforms to EU CE and UKCA Class I Medical Device standards. CE Class IIa conformity is expected in 2025. You will need a recent iOS or Android smartphone with a front-facing camera (not available on desktop devices).
