1. What is Olmesartan / Amlodipine / Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic and what is it used for

This medicinal product contains three active substances called olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine (as amlodipine besylate) and hydrochlorothiazide. The three substances help to control 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 channel blockers”. Amlodipine also lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels.
• Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to a group of medicines called thiazide diuretics. It lowers blood pressure by helping to remove excess fluid from the body, increasing urine production by the kidneys.

The action of these substances contributes to lowering your blood pressure. Olmesartan/hydrochlorothiazide/amlodipine is used to treat high blood pressure:

• in adult patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with the combination of olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine, taken as a fixed-dose combination, or
• in patients who are already taking a fixed-dose combination of olmesartan medoxomil and hydrochlorothiazide, along with tablets containing only amlodipine, or a fixed-dose combination of olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine, along with tablets containing only hydrochlorothiazide.

2. What you need to know before taking Olmesartan / Amlodipine / Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic

Do not take Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic

• If you are allergic to olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine, or a special group of calcium channel blockers (dihydropyridines), hydrochlorothiazide, or substances similar to hydrochlorothiazide (sulfonamides), or to any of the other components of this medicine (listed in section 6).
• If you think you may be allergic, inform your doctor before taking olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide.
• If you have severe kidney problems.
• If you have diabetes or kidney failure and are being treated with a blood pressure-lowering medicine that contains aliskiren.
• If you have low levels of potassium or sodium in your blood, high levels of calcium or uric acid (with symptoms of gout or kidney stones) in your blood, which do not improve with treatment.
• If you are pregnant for more than 3 months. (It is also best to avoid olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide at the start of pregnancy - see section "Pregnancy and breastfeeding").
• If you have severe liver problems, bile secretion problems, or obstruction of the bile drainage from the gallbladder (e.g., due to gallstones), or if you have jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes).
• If you have insufficient blood supply to your tissues, with symptoms such as low blood pressure, weak pulse, rapid heartbeat, or shock (including cardiogenic shock, which means shock due to severe heart problems).
• If you have very low blood pressure.
• If the blood flow to your heart is slow or blocked. This can happen if the blood vessels or valves that capture blood from the heart become narrowed (aortic stenosis).
• If you have poor heart function after suffering a heart attack (acute myocardial infarction). Poor heart function can make you feel short of breath or have swelling in your feet and ankles.

Do not take olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide if any of these cases apply to you.

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting to take Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic:

Tell your doctorif you are taking any of the following medicines used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension):

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

Your doctor may monitor your kidney function, blood pressure, and blood electrolyte levels (e.g., potassium) at regular intervals.

See also the information under the heading "Do not take Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic".

Tell your doctorif you have any of the following health problems:

• Kidney problems or a kidney transplant.
• Liver disease.
• Heart failure or problems with the heart valves or heart muscle.
• Severe vomiting, diarrhea, treatment with high doses of medicines that increase urine production (diuretics), or if you are on a low-salt diet.
• High levels of potassium in the blood.
• Problems with the adrenal glands (hormone-producing glands located above the kidneys).
• Diabetes.
• Lupus erythematosus (an autoimmune disease).
• Allergy or asthma.
• Skin reactions such as sunburn or rash after being in the sun or in a solarium.
• If you have had skin cancer or if you develop an unexpected skin lesion during treatment. Treatment with hydrochlorothiazide, in particular its long-term use at high doses, may increase the risk of certain types of skin cancer and lip cancer (non-melanoma skin cancer). Protect your skin from sun and UV exposure while taking this medicine.
• If you have had respiratory or lung problems (such as inflammation or fluid in the lungs) after taking hydrochlorothiazide in the past. If you experience shortness of breath or severe difficulty breathing after taking Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic, seek medical attention immediately.

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

• Severe, persistent diarrhea that causes significant weight loss. Your doctor will assess your symptoms and decide how to proceed with your blood pressure treatment.
• Decreased vision or eye pain. These could be symptoms of increased pressure in the eye and can occur from a few hours to a few weeks after taking olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide. This can lead to permanent vision impairment if left untreated.

As with any other medicine that lowers blood pressure, an excessive decrease in blood pressure in patients with altered blood flow in the heart or brain may cause a heart attack or stroke. Therefore, your doctor will carefully monitor your blood pressure.

Olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide may cause an increase in lipid and uric acid levels in the blood. Your doctor will likely want to perform a blood test from time to time to monitor these possible changes.

A change in blood levels of certain chemicals called electrolytes may occur. Your doctor will likely want to perform a blood test from time to time to monitor this possible change. Some signs of electrolyte changes are: thirst, dry mouth, muscle pain or cramps, tired muscles, low blood pressure (hypotension), feeling of weakness, slowness, fatigue, drowsiness or restlessness, nausea, vomiting, decreased need to urinate, rapid heartbeat. Tell your doctor if you notice any of these symptoms.

If you are going to have parathyroid function tests, you should stop taking olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide before these tests are performed.

Athletes are informed that this medicine contains a component that may result in a positive doping test.

You must inform your doctor if you are pregnant (or think you might be). Olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide is not recommended during pregnancy, and it must not be taken if you are pregnant for more than 3 months, as it may cause serious harm to your baby if taken at this stage (see section "Pregnancy and breastfeeding").

Consult your doctor if you experience abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea after taking olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide. Your doctor will decide whether to continue treatment. Do not stop taking olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide on your own.

Children and adolescents (under 18 years)

The use of olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide is not recommended in children and adolescents under 18 years of age.

Other medicines and Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any of the following medicines:

Other blood pressure-lowering medicines, as they may increase the effect of olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide. Your doctor may need to adjust your dose and/or take other precautions:

If you are taking a converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor) or aliskiren (see also the information under the headings "Do not take Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Alembic" and "Warnings and precautions").

• Lithium(a medicine used to treat mood changes and some types of depression) may have its toxicity increased if taken with olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide. If you need to take lithium, your doctor will measure your lithium levels in your blood.
• Diltiazem, verapamil, used for heart rhythm problems and high blood pressure.
• Rifampicin, erythromycin, clarithromycin, tetracyclines, or sparfloxacin, antibiotics used for tuberculosis and other infections.
• St. John's Wort(Hypericum perforatum), a herbal remedy for depression.

• Difemanil, used to treat slow heart rate or to decrease sweating.
• Halofantrine, used for malaria.
• Vincamine IV, used to improve blood circulation in the nervous system.
• Amantadine, used for Parkinson's disease.
• Potassium supplements, salt substitutes that contain potassium, medicines that increase urine production(diuretics), heparin(to thin blood and prevent blood clots), converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors) (to lower blood pressure), laxatives, steroids, adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), carbenoxolone (a medicine for mouth and stomach ulcers), sodium penicillin G (an antibiotic also called sodium benzylpenicillin), and some pain relievers like acetylsalicylic acid ("aspirin") or salicylates. The use of these medicines at the same time as olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide may alter potassium levels in the blood.
• Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medicines(NSAIDs) (medicines used to relieve pain, swelling, and other symptoms of inflammation, including arthritis), used at the same time as olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide, may increase the risk of kidney failure. The effect of olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide may be decreased by NSAIDs. If high doses of salicylates are used, the toxic effect on the central nervous system may increase.
• Sedatives, sleep-inducing medicines, and antidepressants, used with olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide, may cause a sudden drop in blood pressure when standing.
• Colesevelam hydrochloride, a medicine that lowers cholesterol levels in the blood, as it may decrease the effect of olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide. Your doctor may advise you to take olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide at least 4 hours before colesevelam hydrochloride.
• Certain antacids(remedies for indigestion and acidity), as they may slightly decrease the effect of olmesartan/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide.
• Certain muscle relaxants, such as baclofen and tubocurarine.
• Anticholinergic medicines, such as atropine and biperiden.
• Calcium supplements.
• Dantrolene(in infusion for severe body temperature abnormalities).
• Simvastatin, used to lower cholesterol and fat (triglyceride) levels in the blood.
• Medicines used to control the body's immune response(e.g., tacrolimus, sirolimus, temsirolimus, everolimus, and cyclosporine), which allow your body to accept a transplanted organ.

Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicine.
