Telmisartan 40 mg + Chlorthalidone 12.5 mg (per tablet)
Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), especially when single-drug therapy is not sufficient
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by blocking AT1 receptors, lowering blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic that increases salt and water excretion, reducing blood volume and blood pressure. The combination provides additive BP control.
Oral tablet; take as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow whole with water. If a dose is missed, take it when remembered unless it is close to the next dose; do not double dose.
