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 a doctor.

Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It blocks angiotensin II (AT1) receptors, causing blood vessels to relax and widen, which lowers blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart.

Oral tablet. Take exactly as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day, with or without food. Swallow with water; do not stop abruptly without medical advice.

Dizziness, headache, fatigue, back pain, diarrhea, nausea, low blood pressure, increased potassium (hyperkalemia), increased creatinine

Not recommended in pregnancy (can harm the fetus), especially 2nd/3rd trimester; use caution in breastfeeding. Use with caution in kidney disease, liver impairment, dehydration/low blood volume, and in patients with high potassium. Monitor blood pressure, kidney function and serum potassium, especially after starting or dose changes. May cause dizziness—avoid driving if affected.

ACE inhibitors (e.g., enalapril) or aliskiren (higher risk of kidney issues/high potassium—avoid in diabetes), potassium supplements/salt substitutes and potassium-sparing diuretics (e.g., spironolactone), NSAIDs (e.g., ibuprofen) may reduce effect and worsen kidney function, lithium (may increase lithium levels/toxicity), other antihypertensives and diuretics (additive BP lowering).

Store below 25°C in a dry place, protected from moisture and direct light. Keep in original blister pack and out of reach of children.
