Olmesartan-Amlodipine-Hydrochlorothiazide 20mg-5mg-12.5mg Uses
This combination medication is used to:
- Treat hypertension (high blood pressure) in patients requiring multi-drug therapy.
- Lower the risk of cardiovascular events, such as strokes, heart attacks, or kidney damage.
- Provide sustained blood pressure control by addressing multiple underlying mechanisms.
How Does Olmesartan-Amlodipine-Hydrochlorothiazide 20mg-5mg-12.5mg Work?
- Olmesartan (20mg): An angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that causes blood vessel constriction, thereby lowering blood pressure.
- Amlodipine (5mg): A calcium channel blocker (CCB) that relaxes and widens blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing the heart’s workload.
- Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg): A diuretic (water pill) that helps the body eliminate excess salt and water, further reducing blood pressure and decreasing fluid retention.
Together, these three active ingredients offer a powerful and effective approach to managing hypertension.
