best in the morning before breakfast and in the evening after work.
In the following situations, accurate measurements cannot be taken.
• Within 1 hour after eating or drinking alcohol

(Wait at least 20 minutes and take a measurement while staying quiet.)
• In cold places
[Take measurements at room temperatures around 68 °F (20 °C).]
• When you need to urinate
(Wait several minutes after urinating before taking measurements.)
Always rest for four to five minutes before taking your blood
pressure.
