  • Olmesartan for high blood pressure

    This week I experienced multiple high blood pressure episodes likely due to excessive heat and dehydration. Doctor prescribed Olmesartan 5 mg. My baby is three months old. Any concerns with continuing this medication or should I switch to a better researched one?

    It is always our preference to use drugs with data confirming passive vs active transport, but we expect the transfer to be low for this drug​. If you decide to take it, watch your baby for poor feeding and increased drowsiness.
