Overview Olmax 40H Tablet

CardioDuo 40H combines two active ingredients to effectively manage hypertension through complementary mechanisms. Untreated high blood pressure significantly raises the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease. CardioDuo 40H may be taken with or without food; dosage is individualized based on your response. Consistent daily timing is recommended. Continue treatment as directed by your physician. As CardioDuo 40H includes a diuretic, increased urination is expected; therefore, avoid late-evening administration (within four hours of bedtime). Regular use, even when feeling well, is crucial for optimal benefit. Hypertension often presents without noticeable symptoms; discontinuation increases stroke and heart attack risk. Dizziness is a common side effect; others include fatigue, headache, weakness, chest pain, and swelling. Increased urination is a known effect of the diuretic, not an adverse reaction. Rare side effects are possible. Elevated intraocular pressure, potentially causing irreversible eye damage if untreated, is a rare but serious possibility. Consult the accompanying patient information leaflet; report persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor, who may adjust your dosage or prescribe an alternative. CardioDuo 40H is contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation. Pre-existing kidney or liver disease, cardiac conditions, or diabetes require medical consultation before initiating treatment. Alcohol consumption may exacerbate hypotension and side effects.
