| Prehypertension is blood pressure between 120-139 millimeters of mercury systolic or 80-89 mm Hg diastolic. |
| Surveyed clinicians expect that, within the next year, the number of patients they will treat for prediabetes and prehypertension will increase. |
| It's also part of the reason why we now have a category of blood pressure called prehypertension. |
| Given that current guidelines are to manage prehypertension with lifestyle changes, reducing salt in our food is an extremely important initiative. |
| High blood pressure is, of course, one of the primary risk factors for heart disease and stroke, and prehypertension is one of the primary risk factors for full-blown high blood pressure. |
| Pharmacologic treatment of prehypertension may prevent or postpone the development of hypertension. |
