What are the serious side effects of Olmy-D?
The serious side effects of Olmy-D include skin rash or itchiness, painful joints, fast heart beat, shortness of breath or tightness in the chest. Serious side effects may also include aching, tender or weak muscles not caused by exercise and swelling of the hands, feet or ankles. Olmy-D may also cause symptoms that may indicate high potassium levels in the blood, such as nausea, diarrhea, muscle weakness and change in heart rhythm. If you experience any of these symptoms, call your doctor immediately.
How long does it take for Olmy-D to work?
You may notice a decrease in your blood pressure effectively within 2 weeks of starting Olmy-D. However, it may take about 8 weeks to see the full benefits of this medicine. Talk to your doctor in case you have any concerns regarding Olmy-D, but do not stop taking it without consulting the doctor.
At what time of the day should you take Olmy-D?
Your doctor may suggest to take your first dose before bedtime, considering that this medicine can make you feel dizzy. After the very first dose you can take Olmy-D at any time of the day. It is important to take this medicine at the same time every day.
Can I take Olmy-D before surgery?
Your doctor may advise you to stop taking Olmy-D 24 hours before surgery. This is because Olmy-D can further reduce your blood pressure when used with anesthetics. So, inform your doctor that you are taking Olmy-D if you will be given general anesthetics (medicines that put you to sleep) or are scheduled to have any surgery.
Can Olmy-D affect my fertility or sex life?
Some blood pressure medicines (including water pills like hydrochlorothiazide) may affect a man’s ability to gain or maintain an erection (erectile dysfunction). However, it is thought that other blood pressure medicines can actually improve erectile dysfunction. If you are worried or notice some changes, talk to your doctor. There is no firm evidence which suggests any effect on the fertility of either men or women with the use of Olmy-D.
