Olmark-10 Tablet contains olmesartan medoxomil (10 mg). Here's how it works:

• Selective Antagonism: Olmesartan medoxomil functions as a selective antagonist for the angiotensin II receptor. In simpler terms, it attaches itself to a particular receptor in your body, blocking a substance called angiotensin II.

• Vasodilation: With the angiotensin II blocked, your blood vessels can relax and widen, a process known as vasodilation. This makes it easier for the blood to flow, reducing the overall blood pressure.

• Aldosterone Reduction: Olmesartan also reduces the secretion of a hormone called aldosterone. Lower levels of aldosterone help in maintaining a healthy blood pressure, contributing to the overall effectiveness of the medicine.

• Store Olmark-10 Tablet at a cool room temperature between 20°C and 25°C.

• Keep away from excessive heat, direct sunlight, and moisture.

• Place this medicine out of reach of children to avoid accidental ingestion.

• Make sure to use the medication before its expiry date.

• Regular Exercise: Incorporate physical activity into your daily routine, as regular exercise can aid in managing high blood pressure. Consult your doctor about the suitable intensity and type of exercise for you.

• Low-Sodium Diet: Eating a diet that's rich in whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy products while skimping on sodium can lower your blood pressure. Try to limit your sodium intake to less than 2,300 milligrams a day.
