CompositionOlmat-20 Tablet is used to manage high blood pressure in adults and children aged six and above. By blocking angiotensin II receptors, it relaxes blood vessels, reduces blood pressure, and lowers the long-term risk of cardiovascular events.
It contains olmesartan 20 mg, an angiotensin receptor blocker. Take it as prescribed at the same time each day, with or without food. Consistent use is important for sustained blood pressure control.
A low-salt diet, staying active, maintaining a healthy weight, limiting alcohol, and stopping smoking all support blood pressure management alongside this medicine.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor about any kidney or liver problems, high potassium, or other medicines. Tell your doctor immediately if you develop severe persistent diarrhoea with significant weight loss during treatment, as this may rarely indicate sprue-like enteropathy, a serious intestinal condition that resolves when the medicine is stopped. It is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
