The tablet containing Olmesartan 40 mg, Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg, and Cilnidipine 10 mg is a prescription medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) when a single medication is not effective. It helps to lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and kidney problems.
Key Information
- Composition & Action: The tablet combines three active ingredients:
- Olmesartan (an Angiotensin Receptor Blocker – ARB): Relaxes blood vessels by blocking a hormone (angiotensin II) that causes them to narrow, allowing blood to flow more smoothly.
- Cilnidipine (a Calcium Channel Blocker – CCB): Further relaxes and widens blood vessels by blocking calcium channels in their walls, reducing the heart’s workload.
- Chlorthalidone (a Diuretic or “water pill”): Helps the body remove excess water and salt through urine, decreasing the fluid volume in the blood vessels and thus lowering blood pressure.
- Intended Use: This triple combination is used for comprehensive hypertension management, especially when blood pressure remains uncontrolled with two components.
- Administration: It should be taken as a whole tablet with food, at the same time each day, or as directed by a healthcare provider. Do not crush or chew the tablet.
- Important Warnings:
- Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: This medicine is generally considered unsafe during pregnancy or breastfeeding and is not recommended for children.
- Side Effects: Common side effects can include dizziness, headache, fatigue, nausea, increased urination, and ankle swelling (peripheral edema).
- Interactions: It may interact with alcohol, certain other blood pressure medications, and NSAIDs (like ibuprofen).
- Monitoring: Your doctor may monitor kidney function, electrolyte levels (potassium, sodium), and blood sugar levels regularly during treatment.
Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting or stopping any medication to get a proper diagnosis and dosage based on your specific medical condition.
