Olmesar A Tablet

Olmesar A Tablet

Olmesar A Tablet is a prescription medication used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and reduce the risk of heart and kidney complications. It is a combination of Olmesartan Medoxomil, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels, and Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker that helps lower blood pressure by widening arteries. This dual-action formulation is especially useful for patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with a single medication. By improving blood flow and reducing strain on the heart and blood vessels, Olmesar A Tablet helps prevent cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney damage. It is generally taken once daily, with or without food, and works most effectively when combined with lifestyle measures such as a balanced diet, reduced salt intake, regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol and smoking.
