Description:
Olmezest CH 20 Tablet is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). By lowering blood pressure through two different mechanisms, it helps to reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and kidney problems.
You can take this medicine with or without food, but try to take it at the same time each day to maintain steady levels in your body. It contains a diuretic (chlorthalidone), which helps the body remove excess fluid through urine—so it’s best to avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime to prevent sleep disruption. Continue taking it regularly, even if you feel fine, as high blood pressure often has no noticeable symptoms.
Common side effects may include dizziness, tiredness, nausea, diarrhea, headache, and low blood pressure. Frequent urination is expected and is part of how the medication works to control blood pressure—it is not considered a side effect. Most side effects are temporary, but if they persist or become troublesome, speak with your doctor. Adjustments to your dose or alternative medications may be necessary.
Do not take Olmezest CH 20 during pregnancy, and consult your doctor if you have a history of kidney or liver disease, heart conditions, or diabetes. Avoid alcohol while on this medication, as it can intensify blood pressure-lowering effects and increase the risk of side effects.
