Salt Composition
Olmesartan 40.00 mg + Amlodipine 5.00 mg
Product Description
PINOM A 40mg is a fixed dose combination medication that contains Olmesartan (40.00mg/tablet) and Amlodipine (5.00mg/tablet). Olmesartan belongs to a class of medications called angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker. This combination is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) by relaxing the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more smoothly and reducing the workload on the heart. PINOM A 40mg works by blocking the action of certain natural substances that tighten the blood vessels, leading to a lowering of blood pressure. It is prescribed to patients when treatment with either Olmesartan or Amlodipine alone is not sufficient to control blood pressure.
