Olkem Trio 6.25 Tablet

Olkem Trio 6.25 Tablet is a combination medication prescribed to manage high blood pressure (hypertension), especially when single-drug treatment does not provide adequate control. By effectively lowering blood pressure, this tablet helps reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes. The medication contains three active components that work together to improve blood circulation and reduce strain on the heart.

It is recommended to take this medicine with food, preferably at the same time every day, to maintain consistent levels in your system. Because it includes a diuretic (commonly known as a water pill), it increases urination, so it’s best to avoid taking it close to bedtime to prevent sleep disturbances. Even if your blood pressure becomes controlled and you feel well, do not stop taking the medication unless your doctor advises you to. High blood pressure typically shows no symptoms, and discontinuing treatment can raise the risk of serious complications.

Common side effects of Olkem Trio 6.25 Tablet may include swelling of the ankles, dizziness, headache, fatigue, altered taste, vertigo, flushing, stomach discomfort, sleepiness, and changes in blood sugar or uric acid levels. Some people may also experience palpitations or glucose intolerance. These effects are usually mild and temporary, resolving as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, if they persist or become bothersome, consult your healthcare provider. Drinking plenty of fluids can help prevent dehydration-related issues like dry mouth or muscle cramps, but you should always follow your doctor’s instructions.

Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have a history of liver or kidney disease, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Special caution is required in such cases, and dosage adjustments may be needed. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure, kidney function, blood sugar levels, and electrolyte balance may be recommended during treatment to ensure safety and effectiveness.

This tablet contains three active substances: olmesartan medoxomil (an angiotensin receptor blocker), cilnidipine (a calcium channel blocker), and chlorthalidone (a diuretic). Olmesartan helps to widen blood vessels by blocking certain natural substances that tighten them. Cilnidipine relaxes the blood vessels and reduces the workload on the heart. Chlorthalidone helps the body get rid of excess salt and water through urine, which in turn helps to lower blood pressure and prevent fluid buildup. Together, these ingredients provide a comprehensive approach to controlling hypertension.

Avoid consuming alcohol while on this medication, as it can increase drowsiness and lower blood pressure further. This medicine is not considered safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless specifically prescribed by a doctor under special circumstances. Driving or operating machinery should be avoided if you experience dizziness or vision disturbances. Patients with significant kidney or liver conditions should use this medication with caution, and in some cases, it may not be recommended.

If you accidentally miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it’s nearly time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take two doses at once to make up for the one you missed.
