⚠️Prescription Required

Olmesar H-40 Tablet 15’s is a combination of two medicines, namely: Olmesartan and Hydrochlorothiazide. Olmesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that works by blocking the hormone angiotensin, thereby relaxing and widening the narrowed blood vessels. This allows the blood to flow more smoothly in the blood vessels, and the heart can pump more efficiently. On the other hand, Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic or water pill that works by removing extra water/fluid and certain electrolytes overload from the body. Together, Olmesar H 40 Tablet 15’s lowers the fluid overload, raised blood pressure, improves blood flow, and reduce the future risk of a heart attack and stroke.
