A more complete picture of your blood pressure — day and night.

A one-off blood pressure reading offers a useful snapshot, but it may not always reflect how your blood pressure behaves throughout the day. 24-hour blood pressure monitoring gives you and your GP a clearer view of your heart health over a full day and night — including during work, rest, and sleep.

At McCauley Pharmacy, you can book a 24-hour blood pressure monitoring appointment using our compact, wireless monitors. These devices are more comfortable to wear than traditional machines, as the cuff and recording unit aren’t physically connected — making it easier to go about your daily routine.

This service can help confirm a diagnosis of hypertension, rule out “white coat” readings, or assess how well treatment is working.

You’ll receive a detailed printed report showing your blood pressure patterns, which you can bring to your GP for further review.

Price: €60
 Availability: By appointment — available in selected McCauley Pharmacies

Why choose 24-hour monitoring?

• Detects patterns over a full 24 hours
• Helps identify “masked” or “white coat” hypertension
• Assesses blood pressure during sleep — a key risk indicator
• Supports your GP in diagnosing or managing high blood pressure
• More accurate than one-off clinic readings alone

What to expect

• Book an appointment at your participating McCauley Pharmacy
• A pharmacy colleague will fit a wireless monitor and cuff in our consultation room
• The device records your blood pressure at regular intervals for 24 hours
• You return the next day for removal and receive your printed report
• Your results will be explained clearly and can be shared with your GP

Before your appointment

• Wear a loose-fitting top to allow easy placement of the cuff
• Go about your day as normally as possible during the monitoring period
• Avoid bathing or showering while wearing the device
• Try to relax and remain still during each measurement (you’ll hear a soft beep before inflation)
