Telmisartan 40 mg
Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure); reduction of cardiovascular risk (heart attack/stroke) in high-risk patients when appropriate.
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It relaxes and widens blood vessels by blocking angiotensin II at AT1 receptors, thereby lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on the heart.
Tablet for oral use. Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow with water; continue regularly even if you feel well.
Common side effects of TELMICHEK 40 10S may include:
Avoid use in pregnancy (can harm the unborn baby). Use caution in kidney disease, liver impairment, dehydration/low salt states, and in elderly due to risk of hypotension. Monitor blood pressure, kidney function and serum potassium, especially after dose changes. Do not use with aliskiren in patients with diabetes; caution in renal artery stenosis. Seek help if swelling of face/lips (angioedema) occurs.
