Telmaheal

Product Overview

Telmaheal is a prescription medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It contains Telmisartan as an active ingredient, which belongs to a class of drugs known as angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs). Telmaheal works by relaxing blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily, thereby reducing blood pressure and the risk of stroke, heart attack, or kidney problems.

Uses

Telmaheal is used to treat hypertension and to reduce cardiovascular risk in patients unable to take ACE inhibitors. It is also used to prevent heart attacks in patients with heart diseases. By lowering high blood pressure, it helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.

How to Use

Telmaheal should be taken orally, usually once daily or as directed by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food. The dosage is based on your medical condition and response to treatment. It is important to continue taking this medication even if you feel well.

How it Works

Telmaheal works by blocking the action of a substance in the body called angiotensin II. Angiotensin II causes blood vessels to constrict and promotes the release of another substance called aldosterone, which increases the amount of sodium and water in the body. By blocking the effect of angiotensin II, Telmaheal widens the blood vessels and reduces the amount of water reabsorbed by the kidneys. This lowers blood pressure and increases the supply of blood and oxygen to the heart.

Dosage and Administration

The dosage of Telmaheal is based on the patient’s medical condition and response to treatment. The usual starting dose is 40 mg once daily. Some patients may benefit from a 20 mg starting dose. If blood pressure is not controlled, the dosage can be increased to a maximum of 80 mg once daily.
