Omnitan 50 Tablet

Description

Omnitan 50 Tablet contains Losartan (50mg), an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension), heart failure, and to lower the risk of heart attack and stroke. It also helps protect kidney function in patients with diabetes.

This medicine works by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow and for the heart to pump more efficiently. As a result, it lowers blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart.

How to take:
Omnitan 50 Tablet can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time every day. It may be prescribed alone or in combination with other medicines. Do not stop taking it suddenly without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well.

Common side effects:
Dizziness, low blood pressure, mild headache, high potassium levels, low blood sugar, and increased blood urea. Most side effects are temporary, but consult your doctor if they persist.

Safety advice:

• Alcohol: Avoid alcohol as it may increase dizziness or lower blood pressure.

• Pregnancy: Unsafe during pregnancy; may harm the unborn baby.

• Breastfeeding: Probably safe if prescribed.

• Kidney: Safe in kidney disease but regular monitoring is recommended.

• Liver: Use with caution in liver problems; not recommended in severe liver disease.

Note: Along with medication, lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, reducing salt intake, avoiding smoking, limiting alcohol, and maintaining a healthy weight can further help control blood pressure.
