Olmistrum AM 40 

Olmesartan (40mg), Amlodipine (5mg)

Introduction

Olmesartan (40mg) and Amlodipine (5mg) is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). This powerful combination brings together Olmistrum AM 40, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), and Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker (CCB), to effectively lower blood pressure, improve blood flow, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.

Uses of Olmesartan (40mg), Amlodipine (5mg)

• Hypertension Management: Effectively controls high blood pressure.
• Cardiovascular Protection: Reduces the risk of strokes and heart attacks.
• Enhanced Blood Flow: Improves circulation by relaxing blood vessels.

Dosage and Administration

• Standard Dosage: The typical dosage for adults is one tablet containing Olmesartan 40mg and Amlodipine 5mg taken once daily.
• Method of Use: Swallow the tablet whole with water, with or without food, preferably at the same time each day.
• Form: Available in tablet form for easy administration.

How It Works

• Olmesartan: Blocks the action of angiotensin II, a substance that causes blood vessels to tighten. This relaxation of blood vessels lowers blood pressure.
• Amlodipine: Inhibits calcium from entering the cells of the heart and blood vessels, causing them to relax and reducing the heart's workload.
