Generic Name: hydrochlorothiazide and olmesartan (HYE droe KLOR oh THYE a zide and ol me SAR tan)
Brand Names: Benicar HCT
Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic (water pill) that helps prevent your body from absorbing too much salt, which can cause fluid retention.
Olmesartan is in a group of drugs called angiotensin II receptor antagonists. Olmesartan keeps blood vessels from narrowing, which lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow.
The combination of hydrochlorothiazide and olmesartan is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).
Hydrochlorothiazide and olmesartan may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
To make sure you can safely take hydrochlorothiazide and olmesartan, tell your doctor if you have any of these other conditions:
glaucoma;
congestive heart failure;
low or high levels of potassium in your blood;
asthma or allergies;
high cholesterol or triglyceride levels;
gout;
lupus;
diabetes; or
an allergy to sulfa drugs.
Take exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take in larger or smaller amounts or for longer than recommended. Follow the directions on your prescription label.
Your doctor may occasionally change your dose to make sure you get the best results.
Your blood pressure will need to be checked often. Visit your doctor regularly.
