Olmezest Am 40 Tablet Health Feed

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.
With HbA1c% 6% diabetes seems to be well controlled. Thanks

Mr. lybrate-user
best medicine to control blood pressure is exercise as you realize. As of now your blood pressure menu is having space to either increase dose or add one more drug. Here I will suggest to add one more drug chlorthalidone 12.5 mg.

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).

Hello, Thanks for the query.

Long term usage of analgesics are best avoided.

Though olmezest can be safely given at gfr > 40 ml/min, in view of the increased serum creatinine level especially if dehydration cannot be excluded, it is safer to prescribe amlodipine/ clinidipine or combination drugs.

H is for an additional molecule called as hydrochlorthiazide and which might be required to control her bp.

Atenolol 200 is a quite high dose. Need to consult your cardiologist whether you really need it. Have a close monitoring of your heart rate.

In some individuals , amlodipine can cause swelling in the feet . Stop amlodipine and ramipril and start tab olmezest H 20mg once daily .. Hope the swelling goes . You should consult after one week of change in medications
