The new Omron Complete Complete BP + ECG 2-in-1 device is now available at Mercury Drug with free trial on select branches nationwide
A device that makes it possible to check and monitor hypertension and signs of atrial fibrillation at home is now available to Filipino families. OMRON Healthcare Philippines, the country’s leading provider of health monitoring and management solutions, has launched the Omron Complete hypertension and heart monitoring device in Mercury Drug stores nationwide.
The newest innovation combines blood pressure monitoring with electrocardiogram (ECG) capability, allowing users to check for both hypertension and signs of atrial fibrillation (AFib) in one unit. Hypertension and atrial fibrillation are often called the “silent twin killers”; conditions can go unnoticed until they lead to serious emergencies. With Omron Complete, high-risk groups such as the elderly, diabetics, and those struggling with obesity can now monitor their heart health more proactively, right at home.
The launch was made possible through the partnership between OMRON Healthcare, Mercury Drug, and Medical Center Trading Corporation (MCTC), underscoring the value of trusted technology, pharmacies, and medical expertise working together to advance heart health in the Philippines.
According to Jaime Espiritu, Mercury Drug vice president for operations, “Many of us don’t realize how much can be caught early with the right tools—a home blood pressure monitor that can also detect signs of atrial fibrillation, for instance, can be the difference between early intervention and a preventable emergency. That is exactly why today’s discussion matters so much.”
“Heart health isn’t something we should leave to chance, and it isn’t something any of us has to manage alone. Today, three organizations work together toward one shared mission: to make sure that reliable heart health solutions are within reach of every Filipino family, whether that’s through the technology we build, the pharmacies you trust, or the medical expertise that guides you along the way,” said Jim Martin Ancla, Sales Manager at OMRON Healthcare.
During the launch held at the Mercury Drug Shangri‑La Plaza branch, Dr. Marlon T. Co, cardiologist and treasurer of the Philippine Society of Hypertension, delivered a short lecture to Mercury Drug pharmacists on the importance of detecting hypertension and AFib early. He emphasized the critical role pharmacists play in bridging the gap, ensuring that patients receive the right medications for their specific conditions, and guiding them on appropriate medications and the use of reliable monitoring tools such as Omron Complete
“Hypertension is the number one modifiable risk factor for atrial fibrillation, and it affects about 70% of AF patients. That’s why early blood pressure control matters—it reduces atrial changes that lead to complications. If we screen hypertensive, high‑risk patients with ECG, we can catch subclinical AF before a stroke happens,” emphasized Dr. Co during his lecture. “Devices like Omron Complete, which combine BP and single‑lead ECG, make this practical. You don’t have to wait for hospital tests; you can do it at home. And because it’s validated against 12‑lead ECG studies, with sensitivity and specificity consistently above 85 to 99%, you can trust the results.”
Alongside Omron Complete, OMRON also showcased the HEM‑7383T1, another advanced monitor designed to detect irregular heart rhythms while providing accurate blood pressure readings. Both devices work seamlessly with the OMRON Connect app, giving users a simple way to track and share their health data with doctors or caregivers.
To bring trusted heart health devices even closer to Filipino families, OMRON is offering a FREE trial of Omron Complete at select Mercury Drug branches, including Shangri-La Plaza, Trinoma Mall, Manila Ermita Taft Apacible, Rockwell Center, Makati, The Link, E. Rodriguez Sr. Broadway, Quezon Avenue, Scout Borromeo, Q-Plaza Cainta, Pasig Meralco Comm’l Strip, Bonifacio Global City Market Market, Taguig Bonifacio Global City, San Juan Green Hills, Ortigas Avenue, Lag Southwoods Eco Centrum, and Paseo de Sta. Rosa, with more branches nationwide to follow soon. This initiative reflects OMRON’s commitment to making preventive care accessible, reliable, and part of everyday life.
With trusted technology now available at the country’s most trusted pharmacy, and pharmacists empowered with the knowledge to guide patients, OMRON, Mercury Drug, MCTC, and Collins are making preventive care part of everyday life. Together, they are helping Filipino families take charge of their heart health before emergencies happen.
