Azor combines two blood pressure medicines in one tablet: amlodipine and olmesartan. It is used when one medicine alone has not lowered blood pressure enough.

What is it used for?

High blood pressure (hypertension)

How does it work?

Amlodipine relaxes blood vessel walls by blocking calcium from entering them. Olmesartan blocks the hormone angiotensin II that tightens blood vessels. Together they lower blood pressure more than either one alone.

This information is written in simple words to help you understand this product. It does not replace advice from your doctor or pharmacist.

Read these points before you start. If any of them apply to you, talk to your doctor or pharmacist first.

High blood pressure usually has no symptoms, so keep taking your medicine even when you feel well. Stopping can make your blood pressure rise again.
It can make you feel dizzy, especially when you stand up quickly or when you first start. Get up slowly from sitting or lying down.
Alcohol can make dizziness worse and raise blood pressure over time. Keep it to small amounts.
Tell your doctor if you have kidney or liver problems.
Have your blood pressure checked regularly, as your doctor advises.
Do not take it if you are pregnant or trying to become pregnant. It can harm the unborn baby. Tell your doctor straight away if you become pregnant.
Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes that contain potassium unless your doctor says so.
Painkillers like ibuprofen and naproxen can reduce its effect and affect your kidneys. Ask your pharmacist before taking them.
Tell your doctor if you take lithium, or aliskiren (especially if you have diabetes).
If you have diarrhoea or sickness and cannot keep fluids down, ask your doctor whether to pause it for a day or two.
Grapefruit juice can raise the level of amlodipine. Avoid large amounts.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist about every other medicine, vitamin or herbal product you use.
Keep this product out of the reach and sight of children.

Like all medicines, Azor can cause side effects, but not everybody gets them.

Common side effects

Dizziness
Feeling tired
Headache
Back or muscle pain
Swollen ankles or feet

These are usually mild and often get better as your body gets used to it. Tell your doctor if they bother you or do not go away.

Stop using it and get medical help straight away if you notice:

Fainting, or feeling like you are going to faint
Swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat, or trouble breathing or swallowing
Muscle weakness, a slow or uneven heartbeat (possible high potassium)
Passing much less urine than usual
Long-lasting, severe diarrhoea with weight loss (a rare gut reaction)

This is not a complete list. If you notice anything unusual, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Take one tablet once a day, at the same time each day.
Swallow it with a glass of water. You can take it with or without food.
It can take 2 to 4 weeks to see the full effect.

If you miss a dose: Take it as soon as you remember the same day. If it is nearly time for your next dose, skip the missed one. Never take two doses at once.

If you use too much: Contact your doctor, a poison control centre or your local emergency number straight away, even if you feel fine. Take the pack with you.

How to store it: Keep it in its original pack at room temperature (below 25°C / 77°F), away from heat, damp and direct sunlight. Do not use it after the expiry date.

Do I need to take Azor for the rest of my life?: Often, yes. High blood pressure is usually a long-term condition. Your doctor will review your treatment over time. Do not stop without talking to them.
Can I drink alcohol with Azor?: Small amounts are usually fine, but alcohol can make you dizzy and can raise your blood pressure. Try to keep within safe limits.
What else can help my blood pressure?: Eating less salt, staying active, keeping a healthy weight, not smoking and cutting down on alcohol all help your medicine work better.
Will Azor give me a cough?: A dry cough is uncommon with this type of medicine. It is often used for people who got a cough from ACE inhibitors like lisinopril.
