1. What is Elestar HCT and what is it used for

Elestar HCT contains three active substances called olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine (as besylate) and hydrochlorothiazide. All three substances help to lower high blood pressure.

  • Olmesartan medoxomil belongs to a group of medicines called angiotensin II receptor antagonists, which lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels.
  • Amlodipine belongs to a group of medicines called calcium antagonists. It also lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels.
  • Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to a group of medicines called thiazide diuretics, which lower blood pressure by removing excess fluid from the body through increased urine production.

The action of these substances results in a decrease in blood pressure. Elestar HCT is used to treat high blood pressure:

  • in adult patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled by the combination of olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine taken as a two-component product, or
  • in patients who are taking a combination product containing olmesartan medoxomil and hydrochlorothiazide and amlodipine as separate tablets or a combination product containing olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine and hydrochlorothiazide as separate tablets.

2. Important information before taking Elestar HCT

When not to take Elestar HCT

  • if you are allergic to olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine or calcium antagonists (dihydropyridine derivatives), hydrochlorothiazide or substances similar to hydrochlorothiazide (sulfonamides) or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). If you suspect an allergy, consult your doctor before taking Elestar HCT.
  • in case of severe kidney problems.
  • if you have diabetes or kidney problems and are being treated with a blood pressure-lowering medicine containing aliskiren.
  • if you have low levels of potassium, sodium, high levels of calcium or high levels of uric acid in the blood (with symptoms of gout or kidney stones) that do not respond to treatment.
  • after the third month of pregnancy (you should also avoid taking Elestar HCT in early pregnancy - see "Pregnancy and breastfeeding").
  • in case of severe liver problems, if bile secretion is impaired or bile flow from the gallbladder is blocked (e.g. by gallstones) or if you have jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes).
  • in case of insufficient blood supply to the tissues, with symptoms such as low blood pressure, weak pulse, rapid heartbeat or shock (including cardiogenic shock, i.e. shock caused by severe heart problems).
  • in case of very low blood pressure.
  • in case of narrowing or blockage of the blood flow from the heart. This can be the result of narrowing of the blood vessels or heart valves (aortic stenosis).
  • in case of weakened heart function after a heart attack (acute myocardial infarction). Weakened heart function can cause shortness of breath or swelling of the feet and ankles.

You should not take Elestar HCT if any of the above situations apply to you.

Warnings and precautions

Before starting to take Elestar HCT, you should discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist.
You should tell your doctorif you are taking any of the following medicines for high blood pressure:

  • an ACE inhibitor (e.g. enalapril, lisinopril, ramipril), especially if you have kidney problems related to diabetes.
  • aliskiren.

Your doctor may recommend regular monitoring of kidney function, blood pressure and electrolyte levels (e.g. potassium) in the blood.
See also the section "When not to take Elestar HCT".
You should tell your doctorif you have any of the following conditions:

  • Kidney problems or a history of kidney transplant;
  • Liver disease;
  • Heart failure or heart valve problems or heart muscle problems;
  • Severe vomiting, diarrhea, treatment with high doses of diuretics or a low-salt diet;
  • High levels of potassium in the blood;
  • Adrenal gland problems (glands that produce hormones, located above the kidneys);
  • Diabetes;
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus (an autoimmune disease);
  • Allergy or asthma;
  • Skin reactions, such as sunburn or rash caused by sunlight or artificial light (solarium);
  • If you have a history of malignant skin tumor or if an unexpected skin change occurs during treatment. Treatment with hydrochlorothiazide, especially in high doses and for a long time, may increase the risk of certain types of malignant skin tumors and lip tumors (non-melanoma skin cancer). During treatment with Elestar HCT, you should protect your skin from sunlight and UV radiation;
  • If you have a history of breathing or lung problems after taking hydrochlorothiazide (including pneumonia or fluid accumulation in the lungs). If you experience severe shortness of breath or difficulty breathing after taking Elestar HCT, you should seek medical attention immediately.

You should contact your doctorif you experience any of the following symptoms:

  • Persistent, severe diarrhea that causes significant weight loss. Your doctor may assess the symptoms and decide how to continue the blood pressure-lowering treatment.
  • Blurred vision or eye pain. These may be symptoms of fluid accumulation in the vascular layer surrounding the eye (excessive fluid accumulation between the choroid and sclera) or increased pressure inside the eye - they can occur within a few hours to a few weeks after taking Elestar HCT. If left untreated, they can cause permanent vision loss

If you experience abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea after taking Elestar HCT, you should discuss it with your doctor. Your doctor will decide on further treatment. You should not stop taking Elestar HCT on your own.
Like other blood pressure-lowering medicines, excessive lowering of blood pressure in patients with circulatory problems in the heart or brain may lead to heart attack or stroke. Therefore, your doctor will recommend careful monitoring of blood pressure in such patients.
Elestar HCT may increase lipid levels and uric acid levels in the blood (a cause of gout - a painful swelling of the joints). Your doctor will likely recommend periodic blood tests to determine these levels.
Taking Elestar HCT may affect the electrolyte balance in your body. Your doctor will likely recommend periodic blood tests to determine electrolyte levels. Symptoms of electrolyte disturbances include: thirst, dryness of the mucous membranes, muscle pain or cramps, muscle weakness, low blood pressure (hypotension), weakness, apathy, fatigue, drowsiness or restlessness, nausea, vomiting, decreased urine output, rapid heartbeat. If you experience such symptoms, you should inform your doctor.
You should stop taking Elestar HCT before undergoing parathyroid function tests.
You should inform your doctor if you suspect (or plan) pregnancy. It is not recommended to take Elestar HCT during pregnancy and it should not be taken after the third month of pregnancy, as it may seriously harm the fetus (see "Pregnancy and breastfeeding").

Children and adolescents (under 18 years of age)

Elestar HCT is not recommended for children and adolescents under 18 years of age.
