About Telmisartan 40mg + Amlodipine 5mg + HCTZ 12.5mg

TELMISTRUM AMH 40 is a potent combination medication designed to effectively manage hypertension. This formulation combines three powerful ingredients: Telmisartan, Amlodipine, and Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), providing a comprehensive approach to blood pressure control. This medication is ideal for patients who require multiple mechanisms of action to achieve optimal blood pressure levels.

Key Ingredients:

1. Telmisartan (40mg): An angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily.
2. Amlodipine (5mg): A calcium channel blocker that prevents calcium from entering the cells of the heart and arteries, thus relaxing and widening blood vessels.
3. Hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) (12.5mg): A thiazide diuretic that helps prevent your body from absorbing too much salt, which can cause fluid retention.

Key Benefits:

• Effective Blood Pressure Control: Combines three antihypertensive agents for superior blood pressure management.
• Reduced Risk of Cardiovascular Events: Helps lower the risk of stroke, heart attack, and other heart-related complications.
• Improved Patient Compliance: Single-pill combination therapy enhances adherence to the treatment regimen.
• Comprehensive Mechanism: Targets different pathways involved in hypertension for a more effective treatment.

How Does It Work?

TELMISTRUM AMH 40 works through a synergistic mechanism:

• Telmisartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels, thus lowering blood pressure and improving blood flow.
• Amlodipine relaxes and widens blood vessels by blocking calcium channels, reducing the workload on the heart and decreasing blood pressure.
• Hydrochlorothiazide helps eliminate excess sodium and water from the body through urine, reducing blood volume and consequently lowering blood pressure.

Directions for Use:

• Take TELMISTRUM AMH 40 exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.
• It can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time each day.
• Do not alter the dose or discontinue use without consulting your doctor.

Side Effects:

Like all medications, TELMISTRUM AMH 40 may cause side effects, although not everyone will experience them. Common side effects include:

• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Swelling of the ankles or feet (edema)
• Increased urination
• Fatigue
• Nausea

If you experience any severe or persistent side effects, contact your healthcare provider immediately.
