What is Telemar 40 H used for?

Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure)
especially when single-agent therapy is not sufficient; helps reduce risk of cardiovascular events associated with uncontrolled BP.

How Telemar 40 H Works

Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by blocking angiotensin II, lowering blood pressure. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that increases salt and water excretion through urine, reducing fluid volume and BP. Together they provide additive blood pressure control.

Dosage & Directions

Oral tablet. Take once daily as prescribed, preferably at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow whole with water; do not stop suddenly without medical advice. Diuretic component may increase urination—taking in the morning may help avoid night-time urination.

Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
