Sevikar is a prescription medication used primarily to treat high blood pressure (hypertension), a condition that can lead to serious cardiovascular events such as heart attack or stroke if left unmanaged. It is a combination drug that contains two active ingredients: olmesartan medoxomil and amlodipine besylate. Olmesartan medoxomil belongs to a class of drugs known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), which work by relaxing blood vessels, thereby lowering blood pressure. Amlodipine besylate is a type of calcium channel blocker that helps to dilate blood vessels, further aiding in the reduction of blood pressure. Sevikar is typically prescribed when treatment with a single medication has not been sufficient to control blood pressure. As with any medication, it is important to use Sevikar under the guidance of a healthcare professional, who can provide advice on proper dosage and monitor for potential side effects.
