Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure); may be used to reduce risk of cardiovascular events (heart attack, stroke) in high-risk patients as advised by doctor

Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that blocks AT1 receptors. This relaxes blood vessels, lowers blood pressure, and reduces strain on the heart.

Monitor blood pressure, kidney function and serum potassium especially after starting or dose changes. Risk of hypotension in volume-depleted patients.
