About Olmax 40-AM Tablet
Olmax 40-AM Tablet is a medication that comprises two active ingredients aimed at managing high blood pressure, which, if left uncontrolled, can increase the risk of heart attacks or strokes in the future. It contains Olmesartan, which is an angiotensin receptor blocker, and Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker. These components work in harmony to help lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels, allowing for smoother blood flow and more efficient pumping by the heart.
People with hypertension, or high blood pressure, often use Olmax 40-AM Tablet either individually or in combination with other medications meant to decrease blood pressure levels. This condition poses long-term risks such as heart disease and irregular heartbeats if not properly managed. To maintain the effectiveness of Olmax 40-AM Tablet, it is essential to take it regularly at the same time each day as directed by your doctor. Even if you feel better, do not discontinue the medication without consulting your doctor, as it plays a crucial role in lowering blood pressure and reducing the chances of heart-related complications.
When taking Olmax 40-AM Tablet, common side effects may include swelling in the ankles or feet, sleepiness, dizziness, headaches, changes in taste, upset stomach, and tiredness. This medication may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so refrain from activities requiring intense concentration until you understand its effects on you. If any of these side effects persist or bother you, communicate with your doctor for guidance. Before initiating treatment with Olmax 40-AM Tablet, inform your doctor if you have kidney or liver issues, severe dehydration, or if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Regular monitoring of blood pressure levels and kidney function is typically conducted while using Olmax 40-AM Tablet. It is crucial to adhere to the prescribed dosage, seek medical advice for persistent side effects, and maintain a healthy lifestyle by engaging in physical activities, quitting smoking, and consuming a diet low in salt and fat to optimize the medication's effectiveness.
