Olzox Trio Tablet 10's
About Olzox Trio Tablet 10's
Olzox Trio Tablet 10's is an 'anti-hypertensives' medication primarily used for lowering high blood pressure (hypertension) by removing extra fluid (electrolytes) from the body. High blood pressure is a chronic condition in which the blood's force against the artery wall is high. As a result, it increases the risk of heart-related diseases like heart attack, heart failure, stroke, irregular heartbeat and other complications.
Olzox Trio Tablet 10's is a combination of three medicines: Amlodipine, Hydrochlorothiazide and Olmesartan. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that dilates (widens) blood vessels and increases blood flow. Altogether, it helps to lower high blood pressure, chest pain (angina) and other conditions caused by coronary artery disease. Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic or water pill that works by removing extra water/fluid and certain electrolyte overload from the body. Together, Olzox Trio Tablet 10's lowers fluid overload, raises blood pressure, improves blood flow and reduces the future risk of a heart attack and stroke. On the other hand, Olmesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that blocks the hormone angiotensin, thereby relaxing and widening the narrowed blood vessels. This allows the blood to flow more smoothly in the blood vessels, and the heart can pump more efficiently.
You can take Olzox Trio Tablet 10's with food or without food with a glass of water. Do not chew, bite or break it. Your doctor will advise you on how often you take your tablets based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience nausea, upset stomach, dehydration, headache, diarrhoea, electrolyte imbalance, dizziness and decreased blood pressure. Most of these side effects of Olzox Trio Tablet 10's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.
Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes unless your doctor tells you. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Do not take this Olzox Trio Tablet 10's if you have diabetes mellitus, liver and kidney problems and low blood pressure. If you notice unexplained muscle pain, dark colour urine, tenderness or weakness, especially if you also have a fever or unexplained tiredness, immediately contact the doctor. If you have any allergy to amlodipine, hydrochlorothiazide, and olmesartan, then do not take this Olzox Trio Tablet 10's. Try not to stop taking this medicine of your own. Let your doctor know about this, as it may cause a rise in blood pressure and increase heart disease and stroke risk. Inform your doctor if you are suffering from kidney, liver, heart disease, or diabetes.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Hypertension: The blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels leading to hypertension. High blood pressure is expressed as systolic/diastolic pressure. Systolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries when the heart beats or pumps out blood. Diastolic pressure is the pressure in the arteries between the heartbeats. Blood pressure is measured in millimetres of mercury (mmHg) by a blood pressure monitor called a sphygmomanometer. Some of the symptoms are headache, dizziness, nosebleeds, altered vision, chest pain, weakness, and shortness of breath. However, most of the time, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none.
