1. what olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide is and what it is used for

Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide contains three active substances called olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine (as amlodipine besilate) and hydrochlorothi­azide. All three substances help to control high blood pressure.

  • Olmesartan medoxomil belongs to a group of medicines called “angiotensin-II receptor antagonists”, which lowers blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels.
  • Amlodipine belongs to a group of substances called “calcium channel blockers”. Amlodipine also lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels.
  • Hydrochlorothiazide is one of a group of medicines called thiazide diuretics (“water tablets”). It lowers blood pressure by helping the body to get rid of extra fluid by making your kidneys produce more urine.

The actions of these substances contribute to decrease your blood pressure.

Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide is used for the treatment of high blood pressure:

  • In adult patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled on the combination of olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine taken as fixed-dose combination, or
  • In patients, who are already taking a fixed-dose combination of olmesartan medoxomil and hydrochlorothiazide plus the amlodipine as a single tablet or a fixed-dose combination of olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine plus hydrochlorothiazide as a single tablet.

2. what you need to know before you take olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide

Do not take Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide if:

  • you are allergic to olmesartan medoxomil, to amlodipine or a special group of calcium channel blockers (the dihydropyridines) to hydrochlorothiazide or to substances similar to hydrochlorothiazide (sulfonamides) or to any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). If you think you may be allergic talk to your doctor before taking Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothi­azide.
  • you have severe kidney problems.
  • you have diabetes or impaired kidney function and you are treated with a blood pressure lowering medicine containing aliskiren.
  • you have low potassium, low sodium, high calcium or high uric acid (with symptoms of gout or kidney stones) levels in your blood that have not got better when treated.
  • you are more than 3 months pregnant. (It is also better to avoid Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide in early pregnancy – see section “Pregnancy and breast-feeding”.)
  • you have severe liver problems, if bile secretion is impaired or drainage of bile from the gall bladder is blocked (e. g. by gallstones), or if you are jaundiced (yellowing of the skin and eyes).
  • you have a poor blood supply to your tissues with symptoms such as low blood pressure, low pulse, fast heartbeat or shock (including cardiogenic shock, which means shock due to severe heart troubles).
  • you have very low blood pressure.
  • the blood flow from your heart is slow or blocked. This may happen if the blood vessel or valve that takes blood away from your heart becomes narrow (aortic stenosis).
  • you have a low heart output after a heart attack (acute myocardial infarction). Low heart output may make you feel short of breath or have swelling in your feet and ankles.

Do not take Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide if any of the above applies to you.

Warnings and precautions

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothi­azide.

Tell your doctor if you are taking any of the following medicines used to treat high blood pressure:

  • an ACE-inhibitor (for example enalapril, lisinopril, ramipril), in particular if you have diabetes-related kidney problems,
  • aliskiren.

If you experienced breathing or lung problems (including inflammation or fluid in the lungs) following hydrochlorothiazide intake in the past. If you develop any severe shortness of breath or difficulty breathing after taking Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothi­azide, seek medical attention immediately.

Your doctor may check your kidney function, blood pressure, and the amount of electrolytes (e.g. potassium) in your blood at regular intervals.

See also information under the heading “Do not take Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothi­azide if:”

Tell your doctor if you have any of the following health problems:

  • Kidney problems or a kidney transplant.
  • Liver disease.
  • Heart failure or problems with your heart valves or heart muscle.
  • Severe vomiting, diarrhoea, treatment with high doses of “water tablets” (diuretics) or if you are on a low salt diet.
  • Increased levels of potassium in your blood.
  • Problems with your adrenal glands (hormone-producing glands on top of the kidneys).
  • Diabetes.
  • Lupus erythematosus (an autoimmune disease).
  • Allergies or asthma.
  • Skin reactions such as sunburn or rash after being in the sun or using a sunbed.
  • If you have had skin cancer or if you develop an unexpected skin lesion during the

treatment. Treatment with hydrochlorothi­azide, particularly long term use with high doses, may increase the risk of some types of skin and lip cancer (non-melanoma skin cancer). Protect your skin from sun exposure and UV rays while taking Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothi­azide.

Contact your doctor if you experience any of the following symptoms:

  • diarrhoea that is severe, persistent and causes substantial weight loss. Your doctor may evaluate your symptoms and decide on how to continue your blood pressure medication.
  • decrease in vision or eye pain. These could be symptoms of an increase of pressure in your eye and can happen within hours to weeks of taking Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothi­azide. This can lead to permanent vision impairment, if not treated.

As with any medicine, which reduces blood pressure, an excessive drop in blood pressure in patients with blood flow disturbances of the heart or brain could lead to a heart attack or stroke. Your doctor will therefore check your blood pressure carefully.

Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide may cause a rise in blood fat levels and uric acid levels (the cause of gout – painful swelling of the joints). Your doctor will probably want to do a blood test from time to time to check these.

It may change the levels of certain chemicals in your blood called electrolytes. Your doctor will probably want to do a blood test from time to time to check these. Signs of electrolyte changes are: thirst, dryness of the mouth, muscle pain or cramps, tired muscles, low blood pressure (hypotension), feeling weak, sluggish, tired, sleepy or restless, nausea, vomiting, less need to pass urine, a rapid heart rate.

Tell your doctor if you notice these symptoms.

If you are due to have tests for parathyroid function you should stop taking Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide before these tests are carried out.

You must tell your doctor if you think that you are (or might become) pregnant. Olmesartan Medoxomil, Amlodipine and Hydrochlorothiazide is not recommended in early pregnancy, and must not be taken if you are more than 3 months pregnant, as it may cause serious harm to your baby if used at that stage (see section “Pregnancy and breast-feeding”).
