Telvas H 40/12.5 Tablet

Description

Product Details

The Telvas H 40/12.5 Tablet is a member of the anti-hypertensive drug class and is mainly used to treat hypertension, or high blood pressure. A chronic or lifelong illness known as hypertension, or high blood pressure, occurs when the force of blood against the arterial wall increases excessively. Heart conditions including heart attacks and strokes may become more likely as a result.

Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, and hydrochlorothiazide, a thiazide diuretic or water pill, are combined as the Telvas H 40/12.5 Tablet. An angiotensin receptor blocker called telmisartan aids in artery widening and relaxation. As a diuretic, hydrochlorothiazide stops the body from absorbing too much salt, which avoids fluid retention. When used together, they reduce blood pressure and the risk of heart attack, stroke, and oedema, or fluid retention.

Telvas H 40/12.5 Tablets can be taken either on an empty stomach or with food. Drink a glass of water and gulp it whole. Depending on your medical condition, your doctor will advise you on how frequently to take your medications. Dizziness, fatigue, nausea, diarrhoea, back pain, and cold/flu symptoms are possible side effects. The majority of these Telvas H 40/12.5 Tablet adverse effects go away with time and don’t need medical intervention. However, consult your physician if the adverse effects are severe.
