Salt Composition

Losartan (50mg) + Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg)

Overview Omnitan H Tablet

HCTZ/ACE Inhibitor combination tablets manage hypertension through a dual mechanism. Untreated high blood pressure significantly increases the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney complications. This medication may be taken with or without food; dosage is individualized and should be taken consistently at the same time daily. Continue treatment as directed by your physician. The formulation includes a diuretic, promoting increased urination; therefore, avoid doses within four hours of bedtime. Regular use is crucial for optimal benefit, even if feeling well, as hypertension often presents without symptoms. Discontinuing treatment raises the risk of cardiovascular events. Dizziness is the most common adverse effect, while fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, headache, and hypotension may also occur. Increased urination is an expected effect of the diuretic component (hydrochlorothiazide) contributing to blood pressure control, not an adverse reaction. While infrequent, other side effects are possible. Consult the patient information leaflet and report any persistent or bothersome side effects to your doctor; dosage adjustments or alternative therapies may be considered. This medication is contraindicated in pregnancy and should be used cautiously with pre-existing kidney, liver, heart, or diabetic conditions. Alcohol consumption may exacerbate hypotension and side effects.
