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

This medication contains three active substances called olmesartan medoxomil, amlodipine (as amlodipine besylate), and hydrochlorothiazide. The three substances help control high blood pressure.

  • Olmesartan medoxomil belongs to a group of medications called "angiotensin II receptor antagonists", which lower blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels.
  • Amlodipine belongs to a group of medications called "calcium channel blockers". Amlodipine also lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels.
  • Hydrochlorothiazide belongs to a group of medications called thiazide diuretics. It lowers blood pressure by helping to remove excess fluids, increasing urine production by the kidneys.

The action of these substances contributes to lowering your blood pressure. Olmesartan medoxomil/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide 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 Aurovitas

Do not take Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Aurovitas

  • 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 medoxomil/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 containing 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 medoxomil/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide at the start of pregnancy - see section "Pregnancy and breastfeeding").
  • If you have severe liver problems, bile secretion problems, or obstruction of 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 narrow (aortic stenosis).
  • If you have poor heart performance after suffering a heart attack (acute myocardial infarction). Poor heart performance can make you feel short of breath or have swelling in your feet and ankles.

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

Warnings and precautions

Consult your doctor, pharmacist, or nurse before starting to take Olmesartan/Amlodipine/Hydrochlorothiazide Aurovitas.

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 severe shortness of breath or difficulty breathing after taking olmesartan medoxomil/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide, see your doctor immediately.

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

  • A medicine called an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACE inhibitor) (e.g., enalapril, lisinopril, ramipril), especially if you have kidney problems related to diabetes.
  • Aliskiren.

Your doctor may check 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 Aurovitas".

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, particularly 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 exposure and UV rays while taking this medicine.

Contact your doctorif you experience any of the following symptoms:

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

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

Olmesartan medoxomil/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 potential 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 potential 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 medoxomil/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide before these tests are performed.

Athletes are informed that this medicine contains hydrochlorothiazide, which may produce a positive result in doping tests.

You should inform your doctor if you are pregnant (or think you might be). It is not recommended to use olmesartan medoxomil/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide during pregnancy, and it should 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").

If you become pregnant while taking olmesartan medoxomil/amlodipine/hydrochlorothiazide, inform and see your doctor immediately.

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