💊 Telpres CT 40/12.5mg Tablet
Telpres CT 40/12.5mg Tablet is a combination antihypertensive medicine containing Telmisartan 40mg, an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB), and Chlorthalidone 12.5mg, a thiazide-like diuretic. It is prescribed for adults with high blood pressure (hypertension), particularly when blood pressure is not adequately controlled with a single medicine.
Telmisartan relaxes blood vessels by blocking the action of angiotensin II, while Chlorthalidone removes excess salt and water from the body through urine. Together, they provide effective blood pressure control and help reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications such as heart attack, stroke, heart failure, and kidney damage associated with uncontrolled hypertension.
