You should check your blood pressure at home at least once a day, three to five times a week. Two to three measurements a day would be ideal, but at least one, at different times of the day, is okay. The morning blood pressure may be different than the afternoon blood pressure, which may be different than the evening blood pressure.
How to use a home blood pressure monitor. 1  Be still. Don't smoke, drink caffeinated beverages or exercise within 30 minutes before measuring your blood pressure. 2  Sit correctly. Sit with your back straight and supported (on a dining chair, rather than a sofa). 3  Measure at the same time every day.
