How Olmesan Plus works
Olmesan Plus is a combination of two medicines: Hydrochlorothiazide and olmesartan which lower blood pressure effectively. Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that removes extra water and certain electrolytes from the body. Over time it also relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow. Olmesartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the hormone angiotensin thereby relaxing blood vessels. This allows the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently.

Safety and efficacy not established
Renal Dose
Renal Impairment
CrCl <30 mL/min: Not recommended
Contraindication
Hypersensitivity to olmesartan medoxomil, hydrochlorothiazide or to other sulfonamide-derived drugs. Severe hepatic & renal impairment (CrCl <30 mL/min); cholestasis & biliary obstructive disorders; refractory hypokalemia; hypercalcemia; hyponatraemia, symptomatic hyperuricaemia; anuria. Concomitant use w/ aliskiren in patients w/ DM or renal impairment (GFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2). Pregnancy (2nd & 3rd trimester) & lactation.
Mode of Action
Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits the reabsorption of Na and chloride in the distal tubules causing increased excretion of Na and water K and hydrogen ions.
Olmesartan is a selective and competitive angiotensin II Type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist that blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II. As a result, olmesartan relaxes blood vessels, hence lowering BP and increases blood supply and oxygen to the heart.
Precaution
Drugs that act on renin-angiotensin system can cause fetal injury and death when used in 2nd and 3rd trimesters of pregnancy. Olmesartan medoxomil should be discontinued as soon as possible once pregnancy is detected. Symptomatic hypotension may occur in patients who are volume- and/or salt-depleted. May be associated with oliguria, progressive azotaemia, and acute renal failure (rare). Patients with bilateral or unilateral renal artery stenosis may have increased risk of severe hypotension and renal insufficiency. Caution in renal impairment; monitor serum creatinine and potassium levels periodically. Avoid use in severe renal impairment (CrCl< 20 mL/min) and severe hepatic impairment. Caution...

Interaction
Olmesartan medoxomil: Increased risk of hypotension, hyperkalemia & changes in renal function w/ aliskiren. May result in deterioration of renal function w/ NSAIDs. May attenuate the antihypertensive effect of angiotensin II receptor antagonists. Reduces systemic exposure & peak plasma conc w/ colosevelam HCl.
Hydrochlorothiazide: Potentiation of orthostatic hypotension w/ alcohol, barbiturates or narcotics. Antidiabetic drugs. Potentiation effect w/ other antihypertensives. Reduced absorption w/ cholestyramine & colestipol resins. Intensified electrolyte depletion w/ corticosteroid, ACTH. Decreased response to pressor amines (eg norepinephrine). Increased responsiveness to skeletal muscle relaxants (eg tubocurarine). Reduce the renal clearance of lithium.
