TELMIGEN 40 MG is indicated for managing essential hypertension and cardiovascular risk:
Telmisartan works by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor in vascular smooth muscle and adrenal glands. This prevents angiotensin II-induced vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion, allowing blood vessels to relax and widen, which lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow.
Timing: Can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time each day.
Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.
Consistency: High blood pressure often has no symptoms; continue taking this medicine regularly even if you feel well.
Storage: Store at room temperature in the original blister pack to protect from moisture.
Caution: Regularly monitor blood pressure, serum potassium, and renal function during treatment.
Allergy Warning: Contraindicated during pregnancy as it can cause serious injury or death to the developing fetus.
