Composition of Telzen 40

Uses of Telzen 40

  • High blood pressure
  • Heart failure
  • Diabetic kidney disease

Benefits of Telzen 40

In High blood pressure
Telzen 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
Telzen 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
Telzen reduces the pressure inside the kidneys' filters and cuts the protein leaking into the urine, slowing the kidney damage that diabetes causes.

How Telzen 40 works

Telmisartan relaxes and widens your blood vessels by blocking a hormone that narrows them, so your heart does not have to push as hard and your blood pressure falls.

Warnings and precautions

Stand up slowly for the first few days — dizziness on rising is common when you start or your dose goes up. Stop and seek urgent care if your lips, tongue, face or throat swell, or you have difficulty breathing. A persistent dry, tickly cough can be caused by the ACE inhibitor group; tell your doctor rather than stopping on your own, as an alternative exists. Your doctor will check your kidney function and potassium after starting and after any dose change. Do not use salt substitutes containing potassium without asking your doctor.

Interactions with other medicines
