Olmesartan Medoxomil (10 mg): It is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels, reducing resistance and helping to lower blood pressure. Olmesartan functions by obstructing the action of specific natural substances in the body that constrict blood vessels. This, in turn, facilitates better blood flow throughout the body and reduces strain on the heart. By lowering blood pressure, this medicine helps prevent complications associated with high blood pressure, such as heart attacks. It is worth noting that individual responses to medication may vary, and personalised advice and information from your doctor are essential.
