Olmesartan prescription online

Olmesartan is a prescription medication used in the U.S. to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and children aged 6 and older. It belongs to a class of drugs called angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), which help lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow. By reducing blood pressure, olmesartan helps lower the risk of serious cardiovascular events like stroke and heart attack.

Olmesartan is available as olmesartan medoxomil tablets in 5 mg, 20 mg, and 40 mg strengths, typically taken once daily with or without food. It also comes in fixed-dose combination products, including formulations with hydrochlorothiazide (marketed as Benicar HCT or in generic forms) and with both amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide (e.g., Tribenzor). Both standalone and combination products are available by prescription only. Generic versions of olmesartan medoxomil are widely accessible and may be more affordable than brand-name options like Benicar and Olmetec.

While olmesartan is generally well-tolerated, some people may experience side effects such as dizziness, stomach discomfort, or in rare cases, sprue-like enteropathy. It includes important safety warnings related to use during pregnancy, kidney function, electrolyte levels, and breastfeeding.
