Overview Olmore AM 20mg/5mg Tablet

Amlodipine/Olmesartan 20mg/5mg tablets combine two blood pressure-lowering medications to help manage hypertension. This reduces your future risk of stroke and heart attack. These tablets can be taken with or without food, but consistent daily use at the same time, as directed by your physician, is crucial. Dosage varies based on your individual health and response. Continue taking this medication even if feeling well, as consistent blood pressure control minimizes stroke and heart attack risk; only discontinue upon your doctor's advice. Complement this treatment with lifestyle modifications, including regular exercise, smoking cessation, and a low-sodium, low-fat diet. Common side effects include ankle or foot swelling, drowsiness, dizziness, headache, altered taste, indigestion, and fatigue. Avoid driving or activities requiring focus until you understand the medication's effects on you. Report any persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor. Inform your physician of any pre-existing kidney or liver conditions, or severe dehydration before commencing treatment. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek medical counsel before use. Regular blood pressure monitoring and potential kidney function tests are standard during treatment.
