Summary

Main use
Improvement in blood pressure control for essential hypertension
Who takes it
Adults · Children
Adult dose
This medication should be taken once daily with water, regardless of meals. It is recommended to take it at the same time every day (e.g., in the morning). The maximum dosage of amlodipine/olmesartan medoxomil/hydrochlorothiazide is 10/40/25 mg. The maximum antihypertensive effect occurs within 2 weeks after administration, so dosing adjustments should be made at intervals of more than 2 weeks. The recommended dosages are as follows: - 5/20/12.5 mg: administered to patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with the combination of amlodipine/olmesartan medoxomil 5/20 mg. - 5/40/12.5 mg: administered to patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with the combination of amlodipine/olmesartan medoxomil 5/40 mg or this medication 5/20/12.5 mg. - 5/40/25 mg: administered to patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with this medication 5/40/12.5 mg. - 10/40/12.5 mg: administered to patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with the combination of amlodipine/olmesartan medoxomil 10/40 mg or this medication 5/40/12.5 mg. - 10/40/25 mg: administered to patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with this medication 5/40/25 mg or this medication 10/40/12.5 mg. * Please refer to the dosage escalation steps outlined (listing ingredient dosages in the order of amlodipine/olmesartan medoxomil/hydrochlorothiazide) 5/20/0 mg → 5/20/12.5 mg ↓ 5/40/0 mg → 5/40/12.5 mg → 5/40/25 mg ↓ ↓ 10/40/0 mg → 10/40/12.5 mg → 10/40/25 mg * Renal impairment The maximum dose for patients with mild to moderate renal impairment (creatinine clearance 30-60 mL/min) is 20/5/12.5 mg once daily. Monitoring of potassium levels and creatinine is recommended for patients with moderate renal dysfunction. This medication should not be administered to patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance < 30 mL/min). * Hepatic impairment Caution should be exercised when administering this drug to patients with mild to moderate liver dysfunction. The maximum dose for patients with moderate liver impairment is 5/20/12.5 mg once daily. Blood pressure and renal function should be closely monitored in liver dysfunction patients. This medication should not be administered to patients with severe liver impairment. * Elderly patients (aged 65 years and older) Generally, treatment should start at a lower dose and dose adjustments should consider the patient’s renal function or heart function and underlying diseases. Blood pressure should be monitored more frequently in elderly patients. Especially, there is very limited experience with this medication in patients over 75 years old, so careful monitoring is essential during administration. * Pediatrics Safety and efficacy in pediatric patients under 18 years of age has not been established, thus the use of this medication is not recommended.
Child dose

Efficacy & effects

Improvement in blood pressure control for essential hypertension

  • Essential hypertension
View approved original text

The combination therapy of amlodipine and olmesartan medoxomil is used when blood pressure is not adequately controlled in patients with essential hypertension. These medications work by dilating blood vessels and lowering blood pressure, thereby reducing cardiovascular burden. Therefore, it becomes an effective treatment option for patients struggling with blood pressure management. Consistent use helps in stabilizing blood pressure control.

Precautions

This medication should not be used during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy as it may cause serious harm to the fetus and newborn. It should not be administered to patients with hypersensitivity to this medication or similar drugs, pregnant or nursing women, or patients with severe hypotension. Patients with reduced blood volume, impaired renal function, or liver damage should use this medication with caution and their condition should be closely monitored during treatment. As this medication lowers blood pressure, it may cause dizziness or lightheadedness, necessitating caution when driving or operating machinery. During treatment, serum electrolyte levels and renal function should be regularly monitored to detect any electrolyte imbalances or renal dysfunction early. This drug can interact with other medications, so it is essential to inform healthcare providers of any other medications being taken, especially lithium, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and other antihypertensives. This drug has not established safety and efficacy in pediatric patients, hence its use is not recommended. In elderly patients, starting with a lower dose is advisable considering the possibility of renal and liver function decline. In cases of overdose, symptoms such as hypotension, palpitations, and bradycardia may occur, necessitating immediate medical attention.
