Olmesar CH 20 Tablet

Olmesar CH 20 Tablet

Olmesar CH 20 Tablet is a combination medication used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and high cholesterol levels. It contains Olmesartan Medoxomil, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that helps relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure, and Chlorthalidone, a thiazide-like diuretic that reduces fluid retention and further supports blood pressure control. By addressing both hypertension and fluid balance, Olmesar CH 20 Tablet helps protect the heart, kidneys, and blood vessels from damage, lowering the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney complications. Regular use under medical supervision, along with lifestyle modifications such as a balanced diet, reduced salt intake, regular exercise, and avoiding smoking and alcohol, enhances its effectiveness.
