Olmesartan

Olmesartan is a medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It belongs to a class called angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), which work by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow through the body. This helps lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart problems like strokes and heart attacks. Olmesartan is usually taken once daily and may be prescribed alone or with other medications. As with any medicine, it’s important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions and discuss any side effects or concerns with them.
