Description:
Olmat-H Tablet is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It works through multiple mechanisms to effectively lower blood pressure, reducing the risk of serious complications such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney damage. One of its components is a diuretic (water pill), which helps remove excess fluid from the body, further aiding in blood pressure control.
Take Olmat-H with or without food, but it is recommended to take it at the same time each day for optimal results. Since the diuretic increases urination, it’s best to avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime to reduce nighttime bathroom trips. Even if you feel fine or your blood pressure seems controlled, continue taking it as prescribed—stopping suddenly could increase your risk of complications.
To support the effectiveness of Olmat-H, incorporate healthy lifestyle changes, such as staying active, following a heart-healthy, low-sodium diet, managing your weight, and avoiding alcohol and tobacco. While most people tolerate the medication well, some may experience side effects like dizziness, headache, weakness, tiredness, chest pain, or swelling (edema). In rare cases, it can increase eye pressure, which can cause permanent damage if not addressed. Always read the medication leaflet and report any unusual or persistent symptoms to your doctor.
Before starting Olmat-H, inform your doctor if you have any kidney or liver problems, heart conditions, or diabetes. This medication is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Avoid drinking alcohol, as it may intensify side effects such as dizziness or low blood pressure.
