Introduction

Pinom 40 Tablet is a medicine commonly prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). It contains Olmesartan, which belongs to a group of medicines known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). It works by relaxing and widening blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more smoothly and reducing strain on the heart. Proper control of blood pressure helps in lowering the risk of stroke, heart disease, and kidney-related complications.
