can you eat grapefruit with this medicine?

I do. I've been on it for two years. Just make sure you eat some foods high in potassium (oranges, orange juice, tomato juice, bananas) to keep your potassium levels up because Benicar makes you pee a lot —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.164.212.250 (talk) 13:42, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

Olmesartan (an acid) and olmesartan medoxomil are different compounds and they should have their own pages. Olmesartan medoxomil is ester prodrug of olmesartan that is an acid.--Tanevala (talk) 10:22, 2 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

CELIAC Disease Warning

Reports involving Benicar diarrhea problems suggest that the symptoms may not appear until months or even years after an individual first uses the drug. Therefore, if longer studies had been conducted the drug maker could have discovered the connection and provided warnings for consumers and the medical community much earlier - See more at: http://www.youhavealawyer.com/blog/2014/03/28/benicar-diarrhea-problems/#sthash.IxGPpe2m.dpuf
