Olmesartan Medoxomil 20/40mg. + Amlodipine Besylate Eqv. To Amlo. 5mg.
Olmesartan Medoxomil 20mg/40mg + Amlodipine Besylate Eq. to Amlodipine 5mg is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).
Olmesartan Medoxomil (20mg/40mg) is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that works by blocking the effects of the hormone angiotensin II, which causes blood vessels to constrict. By preventing this, Olmesartan helps relax and widen the blood vessels, reducing blood pressure and lowering the risk of heart-related complications.
Amlodipine (5mg) is a calcium channel blocker that also helps lower blood pressure by relaxing and widening blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing the workload on the heart.
This combination of medications provides dual action to lower blood pressure through different mechanisms, helping to reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage.
