Olmy D 40mg Strip Of 10 Tablets
Description
Olmy D tablet is a combination medicine used to treat high blood pressure by working on the kidneys and blood vessels. Indapamide is a diuretic that helps the kidneys remove excess water and salt from the body. This reduces the volume of blood the heart must pump, thereby lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on the heart. Olmesartan works by blocking the angiotensin II receptor, which normally constricts blood vessels. Relaxing and dilating the vessels facilitates blood flow and further reduces blood pressure. Together, these two actions help protect the heart, kidneys, and blood vessels from damage caused by hypertension.
This medicine helps lower the risk of complications related to high blood pressure, such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney problems. Reducing fluid overload and relaxing blood vessels allows the heart to pump more efficiently and helps maintain stable blood pressure throughout the day.
Most people tolerate this medication well, but some may experience side effects like dizziness, headache, nausea, or tiredness, especially when starting therapy. These effects are usually mild and often improve as the body adjusts to the medicine. Staying hydrated and rising slowly from sitting or lying positions can help reduce dizziness or light-headedness.
It is important to follow a low-salt diet and avoid excessive alcohol while taking this medicine. These lifestyle steps complement the medication and help maintain better blood pressure control. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, and electrolytes helps ensure that the medication is working effectively and safely.
Patients should inform their doctor about all other medications, supplements, or herbal products they are taking, as some drugs can interact and affect the medicine’s action or increase side effects. Taking the tablet at the same time each day and not missing doses helps maintain consistent blood pressure control and improves overall heart and kidney health.
