Benicar Information

reviewed by Carol Hou, Pharmacist on 9/18/2024 9:48:48 PM.

Benicar Details (Brand and Generic)

Canadapharmacyonline.com offers Benicar, also called Olmetec, from Turkey by Daiichi Sankyo, Canada by Organon, and Australia by MSD. The generic Olmesartan (also called Olmecip) comes from India and is manufactured by Cipla, from Canada, also called Auro-Olmesartan by Aurobindo, and from the UK by a different manufacturer. Our customers may purchase other blood pressure medications such as Cozaar.

Dosage

The brand Benicar and the generic Olmesartan are both available in the strength of 10 mg, 20 mg, and 40 mg tablets; for more dosage information, please refer to Medscape.

Usage

Benicar (Olmesartan) treats high blood pressure in adults and children over six (source). Olmesartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARBs). This medication relaxes the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood, which lowers blood pressure. Benicar may be used alone or in combination with other medications. Benicar should be a part of a complete treatment plan that includes lifestyle changes such as a low-sodium diet, exercise, stopping smoking, controlling cholesterol, treating or preventing blood clots, and controlling blood sugar. Treating high blood pressure helps prevent the risk of strokes and heart attacks. Benicar is different from the HCT version because the HCT version contains hydrochlorothiazide.

It is crucial to take the medication exactly as your doctor prescribes or refer to the package insert. Please consult with your doctor for personalized advice.

Side Effects and Precautions

The most common side effect of Benicar is dizziness (source).

• Call your doctor immediately if you have any of the severe side effects such as: Feeling light-headed, like you might faint;
• Little or no urination;
• Severe diarrhea;
• Symptoms of high potassium level;
• Weight loss
