Benicar (olmesartan medoxomil)

Indications

• Use Benicar to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). By lowering blood pressure, you help prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.
• You can use it as part of a combination therapy for managing hypertension when one medication alone is not enough.
• It is beneficial in reducing the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with high blood pressure.

Dosage and Administration

• Take Benicar exactly as prescribed by your doctor, usually once daily, with or without food.
• Swallow the tablet whole with a full glass of water.
• Take your dose at the same time each day to maintain an even level of the medication in your blood.
• Take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule.
• Do not stop taking Benicar without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well.
• Avoid taking Benicar with high-fat meals, as it may reduce the effectiveness of the medication.
• Do not take more than the prescribed dose; overdose can lead to severe low blood pressure.
• Avoid drinking alcohol excessively, as it can further lower your blood pressure and increase side effects.

Mechanism of Action

Benicar is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It works by relaxing blood vessels so blood can flow more easily. It blocks the action of angiotensin II, a substance in your body that causes blood vessels to tighten and narrow, thereby lowering blood pressure.
