Uses:-
Olmesartan Medoxomil 40mg tablets are a medication used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). They belong to a class of drugs known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs).

By blocking angiotensin II, Olmesartan helps blood vessels relax and widen, allowing blood to flow more easily, thus lowering blood pressure.
