Olmat-H Tablet

Product Introduction
Olmat-H Tablet is a combination of two medicines that work together to help manage high blood pressure. Uncontrolled blood pressure can increase the risk of serious health problems like heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage.

This medicine can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time every day to get the best results. Your doctor will decide the correct dose based on your health condition and how you respond to the treatment. Since it contains a diuretic (water pill), it increases the amount of urine your body produces, so it is advisable not to take it within four hours of bedtime. Even if you feel fine, continue using this medicine regularly as high blood pressure often has no obvious symptoms. Stopping the medication suddenly may raise your risk of heart-related issues or stroke.

The most frequently reported side effect is dizziness. Other possible side effects include tiredness, headache, weakness, swelling in the body, and chest discomfort. In rare cases, it can cause an increase in eye pressure, which if left untreated, might lead to vision problems. Make sure to read the information provided with the medicine and inform your doctor if any side effects bother you or do not go away. Your doctor may adjust your dose or switch you to another medication if needed.

This medicine should not be used during pregnancy as it may harm the unborn baby. It is also important to consult your doctor before using it if you are breastfeeding or have kidney, liver, or heart-related issues. Avoid drinking alcohol while on this medicine as it may further lower your blood pressure and cause unwanted effects.

Uses of Olmat-H Tablet
Helps manage high blood pressure (hypertension).

Benefits of Olmat-H Tablet
Olmat-H Tablet combines two active ingredients, Olmesartan and Hydrochlorothiazide. It is usually prescribed when a single medicine alone cannot control blood pressure effectively. Olmesartan works by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow, while Hydrochlorothiazide helps the body get rid of excess salt and water by increasing urine production. Together, they reduce blood pressure and lower the risk of future complications such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney problems. Even though you may not feel immediate effects, it works in the long term to keep you healthy.
