High Cholesterol can affect anyone, so it’s important that we get our cholesterol levels checked regularly, especially where there is a family history of high cholesterol.
Having high cholesterol greatly increases your chances of developing heart disease so steps should be taken to keep your levels within healthy ranges.
Selected Unicarepharmacy branches offer Cholesterol Testing where our customers can receive a full breakdown of the cholesterol levels in their systems. The process involves a ‘finger prick’ blood test, takes just 20 minutes and costs just €35.
