Treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), especially when single-drug therapy is not sufficient; helps reduce risk of cardiovascular complications associated with uncontrolled BP.

Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by blocking angiotensin II, lowering blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is a thiazide-like diuretic that increases salt and water excretion, reducing blood volume and blood pressure.

Take by mouth as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day. Can be taken with or without food. Swallow tablet whole with water; do not stop abruptly without medical advice.

Dizziness, lightheadedness, low blood pressure, increased urination, dehydration, headache, fatigue, nausea, electrolyte imbalance (low potassium/low sodium), increased uric acid, increased blood sugar

Monitor blood pressure, kidney function and electrolytes (especially potassium, sodium). Risk of dehydration and hypotension, especially in elderly or with vomiting/diarrhea. Use caution in kidney or liver impairment. May worsen gout (raises uric acid) and affect blood glucose. Avoid potassium supplements/salt substitutes unless advised.
