Olmy-D 40 Tablet 10's

Olmy-D 40 Tablet is a combination of blood pressure-lowering medicine (Olmesartan Medoxomil) and water pills or diuretics (Indapamide) primarily used to treat high blood pressure. Hypertension or high blood pressure is a chronic condition in which the force exerted by the blood against the artery wall increases. As a result, it leads to heart disease, irregular heartbeat, and other complications.

Olmy-D 40 Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Olmesartan Medoxomil and Indapamide. Olmesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that works by blocking the hormone angiotensin, thereby relaxing blood vessels. This allows the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. Indapamide is a diuretic or water pill that removes extra water and certain electrolytes from the body. Together it lowers fluid overload and blood pressure and improves blood flow.

You can take Olmy-D 40 Tablet with food or without food. It should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, bite, or break it. Your doctor will advise you on how often you take your tablets based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience headaches, nausea, or dizziness. Most of these side effects of Olmy-D 40 Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Try not to stop taking this medicine of your own. Let your doctor know about this, as it may cause a rise in blood pressure and can increase the risk of heart disease and stroke. Inform your doctor if you are suffering from kidney, liver, heart disease, or diabetes. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, please tell your doctor so that the dosage of Olmy-D 40 Tablet can be prescribed accordingly. Do not use the Olmy-D 40 Tablet if you cannot urinate,  are dehydrated, have low blood pressure (hypotension), or have a cardiogenic shock (sudden stopping blood flow to the heart). Please tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines or are allergic to this medicine. Reducing the amount of table salt (sodium chloride) in your food often relieves the swelling of the body.

Olmy-D 40 Tablet is a combination medication, generally used when a single medicine is ineffective in controlling blood pressure. Olmy-D 40 Tablet is used to treat hypertension, whereas Olmesartan Medoxomil works by relaxing the blood vessels. On the other hand, Indapamide, a diuretic, works by increasing the amount of urine passed out from the kidneys, lowering blood pressure. Together it lowers the overall raised blood pressure and reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, or kidney problems.
