About Omnipres 40 Ch Tablet 10

Omnipres 40 Ch Tablet 10 is used to manage high blood pressure in adults, particularly when a single blood pressure medicine does not give adequate control.

It combines an angiotensin II receptor blocker, which relaxes blood vessels, with a thiazide-like diuretic, which removes excess salt and water, giving more complete blood pressure control than either medicine alone. Take it as prescribed, and continue even when you feel well.

Reducing salt in your diet, staying physically active, maintaining a healthy weight and limiting alcohol help support better blood pressure control alongside this medicine.

Tell your doctor about any kidney or liver problems, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, before starting this medicine, as it should not be used during pregnancy. Report persistent dizziness, muscle pain or weakness, or joint pain that becomes troublesome.
