Olmesar H 40 Tablet

Olmesar H 40 Tablet

Olmesar H 40 Tablet is a prescription medication designed 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 to improve blood flow, and Hydrochlorothiazide, a thiazide diuretic that helps remove excess fluid from the body, supporting blood pressure control. This dual-action formulation is especially helpful for patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with a single medication. By lowering elevated blood pressure and reducing fluid retention, Olmesar H 40 Tablet helps protect the heart, kidneys, and blood vessels, lowering the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage. Regular use, combined with lifestyle measures such as a balanced diet, reduced salt intake, regular exercise, and avoiding alcohol and smoking, enhances its effectiveness.
