Telmisartan 40 mg + Amlodipine 5 mg (per tablet)
Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), especially when single-drug therapy is insufficient; helps reduce risk of cardiovascular events by controlling BP.
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by blocking angiotensin II effects. Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that dilates arteries by reducing calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle. Together they lower blood pressure more effectively than either alone.
Oral tablet: take once daily at the same time each day, with or without food, as prescribed. Swallow whole with water; do not stop abruptly without medical advice. Monitor blood pressure regularly.
Common side effects of TELMICHEK-A TAB may include:
Not recommended in pregnancy; stop and consult doctor immediately if pregnancy occurs. Use caution in kidney disease, liver impairment, dehydration/low salt intake, severe aortic stenosis, heart failure, or history of angioedema. May cause low blood pressure especially after first dose; rise slowly from sitting/lying. Periodic monitoring of kidney function and potassium may be needed. Use caution in elderly.
