Olmax 20 MG Tablet Health Feed

Clinically seen effect of Cilnidipine is different from Amlodipine in a lot of patients. Although, 10 mg of Cilnidipine is considered equivalent to 5 mg of Amlodipine, a shift from Amlodipine to Cilnidipine may lead to reduced efficacy atleast fir the first 1-2 weeks. You may change the medicines if unacceptable pedal edema is present.

you can try to reduce dose, but continue to measure BP monthly. If it again rises after reducing dose 20 may be necessary.

Hi.
Olmezest and Olmetime both have same component (Olmesartan), just different brand.
I wonder why your doctor has written 2 different brand of same medicine.
For the BP you are having, I will suggest taking 20mg both in morning and evening.
Thanks

No they are not the same..
Triolmesar contain 3 different medicine including olmesartan.
And it is better don't change any medication without consulting..

Hello, Thanks for the query.
BP 160/80 mm Hg is high, ideally it should be around 120 to 130/ 70 to 80 mm Hg. You may have to increase the dose of Olmesartan to 40 mg a day.

Hello Mr. lybrate-user, follow the following routine for better control of your hypertension. 1) lifestyle modifications: yoga/exercise with diet rich in green leafy vegetables and healthy fats. 2) a routine night sleep at least 6-8 hrs
3) pharmacotherapy: currently you are on olmesartan 20 mg. Keep recording your bp once in every 15 days
4) connect with your doctor if you are symptomatic (headache, blurred vision, palpitations).

Nothing serious will happen if 2 years old child takes 2 tablet of olmecip 40 mg and careful monitoring only is needed.

More than 2 antihypertensive are needed in many pts to control blood pressure, but olmax am and cinod t belong to same group of drugs so they should not be taken together. Give her any one medicine and if blood pressure is not controlled with that means bp is more than 140/90 mmhg then consult any local physician for second antihypertensive.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I have seen the details given. I learn that you have Hypothyroidism and hypertension. But there is absolutely no mention of necessary details like T4, T3 & TSH levels, BP readings, dosage of Levothyroxine being taken and also dosage of other drugs taken. Without any of these details, it is difficult to give any opinion.
In pregnancy first choice drug for hypertension is Methyledopa, then Labetolo and Nifedipine. Olmesartan is contraindicated.
