Salt Composition

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

Overview Olzox-H 20 Tablet

HCTZ-Olmesartan 20mg tablets combine two active ingredients to manage hypertension through complementary mechanisms. Untreated high blood pressure significantly increases the risk of serious complications like stroke, heart attack, and kidney disease. This medication can be taken with or without food; dosage is individualized based on your response and health status. Consistent daily timing is recommended for optimal efficacy. Continue this therapy as directed by your physician; discontinuation may elevate your risk of cardiovascular events. The formulation includes a diuretic, increasing urination, so avoid dosing within four hours of bedtime. Regular use, even when feeling well, is crucial, as hypertension is often asymptomatic. Common side effects include dizziness; others may include fatigue, headache, weakness, chest pain, and swelling. Increased urination is expected, not a side effect. Rare side effects are possible. Elevated intraocular pressure, potentially causing irreversible eye damage if untreated, is a rare possibility. Consult the patient information leaflet and discuss any persistent or bothersome side effects with your doctor; dosage adjustment or alternative medication may be considered. This medication is contraindicated during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Individuals with kidney or liver disease, heart conditions, or diabetes should seek medical advice before use. Alcohol consumption may exacerbate hypotension and side effects.
