WHAT SEVIKAR HCT IS
USED FOR
SEVIKAR HCT is used to treat high
blood pressure which is sometimes
called hypertension.
Everyone has blood pressure. This
pressure helps push blood all around
your body. Your blood pressure
changes at different times of the day,
depending on how busy or worried
you are. You have hypertension (high
blood pressure) when your blood
pressure stays higher than is needed,
even when you are calm and relaxed.
There are usually no symptoms of
hypertension. The only way of
knowing that you have hypertension
is to have your blood pressure
checked on a regular basis. If high
blood pressure is not treated it can
lead to serious health problems,
including stroke, heart disease and
kidney failure.
_HOW SEVIKAR HCT WORKS_
SEVIKAR HCT contains olmesartan
medoxomil, which belongs to a
group of medicines known as
angiotensin-II receptor antagonists.
Angiotensin-II is a substance
produced in the body which causes
blood vessels to tighten. SEVIKAR
HCT blocks the action of
angiotensin-II and therefore relaxes
your blood vessels. This helps lower
your blood pressure.
SEVIKAR HCT also contains
amlodipine besilate, a calcium
channel blocker. This reduces the
movement of calcium into the cells
of the heart and blood vessels. This
also helps to lower blood pressure as
it relaxes the blood vessels and
increases the supply of blood and
oxygen to the heart.
SEVIKAR HCT also contains
hydrochloroth
