Description
Olmo H Tablet is a medicine prescribed to help control high blood pressure. It contains two active ingredients, olmesartan and hydrochlorothiazide, which work together to lower blood pressure effectively. Olmesartan helps relax and widen your blood vessels so blood can flow more easily, while hydrochlorothiazide helps remove extra salt and water from your body through urine. This combined action reduces the pressure on your heart and blood vessels, helping to protect you from serious complications.
High blood pressure often does not cause symptoms, but if left untreated, it can increase the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney problems. Taking Olmo H Tablet regularly helps keep your blood pressure under control and protects your overall heart health. Even if you feel fine, continue taking your medicine as advised because the benefits are long-term and may not be immediately noticeable.
You should take Olmo H Tablet exactly as directed by your doctor. It is usually taken once a day, at the same time each day, to maintain a consistent level in your body. Do not stop taking the medicine suddenly without talking to your doctor, as this could cause your blood pressure to rise again. If you ever miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but skip it if it’s almost time for your next one.
To get the best results, it’s important to combine this medicine with healthy lifestyle changes. Eating less salt, maintaining a healthy weight, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol intake, and getting regular exercise such as walking can all help improve your blood pressure control. Managing stress and following a balanced diet rich in fruits and vegetables will also make a positive difference.
Always inform your doctor about any other medicines you take and any kidney, liver, or heart-related problems. Regular check-ups will help ensure the treatment is working well for you. With proper use and a healthy lifestyle, Olmo H Tablet can help you manage your blood pressure and support a healthier life.
