Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?
A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Telmistad 20 mg Tablet. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.
All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.
Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.
Composition of Telmistad 20 mg Tablet
Telmistad 20 mg Tablet contains Telmisartan (20mg). It belongs to the Angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) class of medicines.
Uses of Telmistad 20 mg Tablet
- Hypertension (high blood pressure)
- Reduction of cardiovascular risk in high-risk patients as advised by a doctor
Benefits of Telmistad 20 mg Tablet
- In High blood pressure
- Telmistad relaxes and widens your blood vessels so the heart pumps against less resistance. Lowering blood pressure cuts the risk of stroke, heart attack and kidney damage, even though you will not feel it working.
- In Heart failure
- Telmistad eases the load on a weak heart so it pumps more efficiently, which reduces breathlessness and swelling and lowers the chance of a hospital admission.
- In Diabetic kidney disease
- Telmistad reduces the pressure inside the kidneys' filters and cuts the protein leaking into the urine, slowing the kidney damage that diabetes causes.
How Telmistad 20 mg Tablet works
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It blocks the action of angiotensin II on AT1 receptors, leading to relaxation and widening of blood vessels. This lowers blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart.
