La Farmàcia de La Rambleta, in Terrassa, has joined the 'Mànigues Amunt' campaign on the occasion of World Hypertension Day, an initiative focused on detecting uncontrolled cases and improving treatment follow-up.
The campaign incorporates a novelty that focuses not only on diagnosis, but also on what happens afterwards. The pharmacist can perform a treatment adherence test to check if the patient is correctly following the medication and, from there, offer personalized advice or refer them to the doctor when necessary.

The objective of 'Mànigues Amunt' is to improve hypertension control through early detection of cases that are not well controlled. The initiative also seeks to reduce the impact of heart diseases linked to this pathology.
In the Terrassa pharmacy, the intervention adds a specific review of therapeutic compliance. This step allows us to detect if the problem is not only in blood pressure levels, but also in the daily adherence to the prescribed medication.
The 'La Meva Farmàcia' app reinforces digital monitoring in Terrassa
Along with in-person care, the campaign promotes the use of the 'La Meva Farmàcia' app to facilitate hypertension control. The tool is proposed as a support for more continuous monitoring of the pathology.
The incorporation of Farmàcia de La Rambleta places Terrassa within an action linked to the prevention and control of a disease that requires consistency in treatment. The novelty of the adherence test adds a practical filter to decide when reinforcing guidelines is enough and when it is advisable to refer to the doctor.
The campaign is being promoted coinciding with World Hypertension Day and adds the use of the 'La Meva Farmàcia' app as support for digital patient monitoring.
