Description
Co-Baritec Tablets 20/12.5mg – Olmesartan & Hydrochlorothiazide for Hypertension
Co-Baritec Tablets 20/12.5mg combine Olmesartan Medoxomil 20mg (ARB — angiotensin II receptor blocker) and Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg (thiazide diuretic) as Rx dual antihypertensive therapy. Olmesartan blocks AT1 receptors, reducing vasoconstriction; HCTZ promotes renal sodium and water excretion, lowering circulating volume. Together they deliver additive blood pressure reduction beyond either monotherapy alone, protecting against stroke, MI, and hypertensive kidney disease.
- Rx ARB + thiazide diuretic dual therapy for adults needing more than one antihypertensive
- Olmesartan 20mg + HCTZ 12.5mg — lower starting dose combination
- Monitor blood pressure, renal function, and electrolytes regularly
- Avoid in late pregnancy; caution with NSAIDs, potassium supplements, steroids

FAQs
What is the difference between Co-Baritec 20/12.5mg and Co-Baritec 40/12.5mg?
Both contain the same HCTZ 12.5mg diuretic component. The difference is the olmesartan dose: 20mg (lower-strength ARB) vs 40mg (higher-strength ARB). Doctors typically start with the 20mg dose and escalate to 40mg if blood pressure control is insufficient.
Why is Co-Baritec Rx-only?
Olmesartan+HCTZ requires individual dose titration, renal and electrolyte monitoring, and is contraindicated in late pregnancy — all requiring medical supervision.
Can I take Co-Baritec during pregnancy?
No. ARBs (including olmesartan) are contraindicated during the second and third trimesters due to risk of foetal renal toxicity. Consult your doctor immediately if you become pregnant while on this medicine.
