Salt Composition

Olmesartan Medoxomil (20mg) + Chlorthalidone (12.5mg)

Overview Olmezed CT 20mg/12.5mg Tablet

Azilsartan medoxomil and chlorthalidone, combined as Olmezed CT 20mg/12.5mg tablets, effectively manage hypertension through dual mechanisms. Untreated hypertension significantly increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney complications. This medication can be taken with or without food; dosage is personalized and should be consistently administered at the same time daily, as directed by your physician. Continued use is crucial for optimal results, even during symptom-free periods, as hypertension is often asymptomatic. Discontinuation raises the risk of cardiovascular events. The medication includes a diuretic, promoting increased urination; therefore, avoid nighttime doses within four hours of sleep. Common side effects include dizziness, fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, and headache, along with potential blood pressure decreases. Increased urination is an intended effect of the chlorthalidone component, contributing to blood pressure control. While other side effects are possible, they are typically infrequent. Consult the patient information leaflet and inform your doctor of any persistent or bothersome side effects; dosage adjustments or alternative therapies may be considered. Use during pregnancy is discouraged, and individuals with kidney or liver impairment, heart conditions, or diabetes should consult their physician before use. Alcohol consumption may exacerbate blood pressure lowering and increase the chance of side effects.
