The new guidelines change nothing if you're younger than 60. But if you're 60 or older, the target has moved up: Your goal is to keep your blood pressure at 150/90 or lower. If you have kidney disease or diabetes, your target used to be 130/80 or lower; now it's 140/90 or lower.

Learn More »En español l It sounded like great news for thousands of older people: New blood pressure guidelines might free them from the anxiety of taking powerful medications to control their blood pressure, and the side effects those pills sometimes brought. But almost immediately, several members of the panel of medical experts recommending the change strongly dissented and warned that the new guidelines could endanger some people. The result has been confusion similar to that created late last year with the muddled rollout of new guidelines for using cholesterol-lowering statin drugs. The controversy began when a panel of 17 national experts announced in December that, based on a five-year analysis of the best available research, the target for treating high blood pressure should be nudged a little higher for those age 60-plus and for those with diabetes or kidney disease. Its findings were published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. However, five panel members disagreed and published a follow-up article in the Annals of Internal Medicine warning that the change could put more patients at risk for heart disease and stroke.
