About the Product:
Telmital 40 Tablet is a medication used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and heart failure. It is also beneficial in preserving kidney function in diabetic patients. By lowering blood pressure, Telmital helps prevent complications such as heart attacks and strokes. This medicine can be taken alone or in combination with other medications and is effective for long-term use. It is important to continue taking Telmital regularly, even if you feel well, to maintain optimal blood pressure control.
To further help lower blood pressure, lifestyle changes like regular physical activity, weight loss, quitting smoking, reducing alcohol consumption, and following a low-salt diet, as advised by your doctor, are also recommended.
Salt Composition/Key Ingredients:
Each Telmital 40 Tablet contains Telmisartan (40mg), an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that helps relax the blood vessels and lower blood pressure.
How to Use:

Side Effects:
Most side effects of Telmital are mild and temporary as your body adjusts to the medication. However, some common side effects may include:
- Diarrhea

How It Works:
Telmital 40 Tablet is classified as an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the action of a chemical (angiotensin II) that normally causes blood vessels to constrict. By relaxing and widening the blood vessels, Telmital helps lower blood pressure, improves blood flow to vital organs, and allows the heart to pump more effectively. This ultimately helps manage conditions like hypertension, heart failure, and reduces the risk of cardiovascular events.
