Uses of Olmezest H 20/12.5mg
Olmezest H is a prescription-based, highly effective medicine to treat Hypertension. It is a condition when blood pressure levels go unusually high due to arterial blockage.

High blood pressure can often be an early sign of more severe disorders such as Heart attack, Heart failure, Stroke, irregular heartbeat, and other complications. The medicine works to remove the electrolytes from the body and lower blood pressure.
Working of Olmezest
Olmezest H 20/12.5 mg is a combination medicine containing Medoxomil and Hydrochlorothiazide, which belong to the medical class of Antihypertensives. Medoxomil is an Angiotensin Receptor Blocker. It blocks the hormone Angiotensin, thereby relaxing and widening the narrowed blood vessels. It, thus, allows the blood to flow more smoothly in the blood vessels, and the heart can pump more efficiently. Hydrochlorothiazide is a Diuretic that removes extra fluid and certain electrolyte overload from the body. Together, Olmezest H 20 tablet lowers fluid overload, decreases blood pressure, improves blood flow, and reduces the future risk of severe Cardiovascular disease.
