Olmy-D20 Tablet contains two active ingredients that work together to manage high blood pressure:

• Indapamide (1.5 mg): This ingredient is a thiazide-like diuretic, which helps in lowering blood pressure. Diuretics increase the excretion of sodium and water from the body. By expelling excess water and sodium, it reduces the volume of blood in the vessels, thus lowering blood pressure.

• Olmesartan Medoxomil (20 mg): Olmesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the action of a hormone called angiotensin II. Angiotensin II normally causes blood vessels to constrict (narrow). By blocking this action, olmesartan helps the blood vessels to relax and widen, which in turn reduces blood pressure.

• Always avoid exposure to direct sunlight or heat as it may degrade the medicine.

• The tablet should never be kept within reach of children.

• Regular physical activity: Engaging in moderate exercise like brisk walking, cycling, or swimming can help manage high blood pressure. However, remember to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.

• Limit salt intake: A diet low in salt is advised for individuals with hypertension. Limit your daily sodium intake, as an excess can raise blood pressure levels. Opting for fresh fruits and vegetables over processed foods can help reduce your salt intake.
