About Triolsar 20 Tablet 10'S

Triolsar 20 Tablet 10'S belongs to a class of medicines called antihypertensives used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke in adults. Hypertension is a condition in which the force of blood against the walls of the artery is very high. It will be an addition to the workload of the heart and arteries.

Triolsar 20 Tablet 10'S is a combination of three drugs, namely: Amlodipine (calcium channel blocker), Chlorthalidone (diuretic) and Olmesartan medoxomil (angiotensin II receptor blocker). Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that works by acting on muscle cells in the artery walls and relaxes muscle cells. Thereby, it relaxes and widens arteries (blood vessels) and improves the blood flow and oxygen supply to the heart. Chlorthalidone belongs to the class of diuretics (water tablets) that works by increasing the removal of excess water and certain salts such as sodium and potassium from the blood. This removal of water from blood reduces the fluid volume circulating through blood vessels and improves blood flow. Olmesartan medoxomil works by blocking the action of a hormone called angiotensin II in the body that causes narrowing of blood vessels leading to high blood pressure. Thereby, Triolsar 20 Tablet 10'S widens and relaxes blood vessels. Thus, it lowers high blood pressure.
