What Numbers Of Elevated BP Levels Are Considered Dangerous?
I have a friend who s blood pressure is currently 187/107. She says she s laying down trying to take it easy to get it to go back down. I m worried she should be going to the Emergency Room. At what point should one go to the emergency room for high blood pressure

Hi,
Her blood pressure is really high. She should have it around 120/80 mm Hg. In this case she should go to ER for treatment to lower blood pressure and avoid complications.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
