OLMESARTAN HCT VIATRIS 20/12.5, 40/12.5, 40/25 TABLETS is used to treat high blood
pressure which is sometimes called hypertension. Everyone has blood pressure. This
pressure helps push blood all around your body. Your blood pressure changes at different
times of the day, depending on how busy or worried you are. You have hypertension
(high blood pressure) when your blood pressure stays higher than is needed, even when
you are calm and relaxed.
There are usually no symptoms of hypertension. The only way of knowing that you have
hypertension is to have your blood pressure checked on a regular basis. If high blood
pressure is not treated it can lead to serious health problems including stroke, heart

Weight: your doctor may suggest losing some weight to help lower your blood pressure
and help lessen the amount of work your heart has to do. Some people may need a dietician's
help to lose weight.
Diet: eat a healthy diet which includes plenty of fresh vegetables, fruit, bread (preferably
wholegrain), cereals and fish. Also eat less sugar and fat (especially saturated fat)
which includes sausages, fatty meats, full cream dairy products, biscuits, cakes,
pastries, chocolates, chips and coconut. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats

good exercise, but try to find a route that is reasonably flat. Before starting any
exercise, ask your doctor about the best kind of programme for you.
