✅ Description:

High blood pressure, or hypertension, is a medical condition characterized by elevated blood pressure levels. Persistent hypertension can lead to serious complications such as heart attack, heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, and vision impairment. Duovas 5/20 Tablet combines amlodipine and olmesartan, which work together to lower blood pressure.

Duovas 5/20 Tablet (Antihypertensive agent) is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) in patients who do not respond adequately to therapy with either olmesartan or amlodipine alone.

  • Regular monitoring of kidney function, blood pressure, and electrolytes (e.g., potassium) is advised during treatment with Duovas 5/20 Tablet.
