What is low blood pressure?
Hypotension is a condition where blood pressure levels are lower than normal, which can sometimes lead to symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, or fatigue. In the UK it affects roughly 5 million people. Many people find the symptoms of low blood pressure can be managed with treatment or lifestyle adjustments.
Most people with low blood pressure continue to travel as normal, and with a little planning and proper management of the condition, it can often be done safely and confidently.
Why travel insurance matters if you have low blood pressure:
- Emergency medical treatment and hospital care abroad
- Medical transport or repatriation back to the UK if required
- Cancellation cover if you are unable to travel due to your condition
- 24-hour medical assistance while you are abroad
Travel advice for people with a cardiovascular condition like low blood pressure
- Keep any low blood pressure medication in your hand luggage so it’s easy to reach
- Try to keep to your usual medication routine while travelling
- Plan activities so you can rest if your symptoms get worse
- Research medical facilities at your destination in case low blood pressure causes problems
If you have been diagnosed with hypotension, you might need to declare it when applying for travel insurance. Read the medical declaration carefully to make sure you give full details of your low blood pressure.
You can still find suitable travel insurance if you have low blood pressure. Options vary with the nature of the condition and how well it is controlled, so give clear and accurate information when you complete the medical declaration.
