Telvas-CT 80 Tablet (Telmisartan 80mg / Chlorthalidone 12.5mg)

TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET belongs to the class of anti-hypertensives primarily taken to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). Hypertension or high blood pressure is a life-long or chronic condition in which the blood pressure against the artery wall becomes too high. It can lead to the risk of heart diseases, like heart attack and stroke.

TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET is a combination of Telmisartan (angiotensin II receptor antagonist) and Chlorthalidone (thiazide diuretic or water pill). Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker that helps to relax and widen the blood vessels (arteries). Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that prevents absorption of excess salt in the body, preventing fluid retention. Together it lowers blood pressure and prevents the risk of any future stroke, heart attack, and oedema (fluid retention).

You can take TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET with food or an empty stomach. It should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Your doctor will advise you how often you take your tablets based on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience dizziness, feeling tired, skin ulcers, diarrhoea, nausea diarrhoea, back pain, and cold/flu symptoms. Most of these side effects of TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes unless the doctor has told you. In rare cases, TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET can cause a condition that results in the skeletal muscle problem, leading to further kidney failure.

Hypertension (high blood pressure)

TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET belongs to the class of anti-hypertensives primarily taken to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET is a combination of Telmisartan (angiotensin II receptor antagonist) and Chlorthalidone (thiazide diuretic or water pill). TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels (arteries), making the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. It helps to lower high blood pressure, thus reduces the chances of future heart attack and stroke. Besides this, it prevents excessive water and electrolytes (like sodium, potassium, etc.) from the body through urine that can otherwise raise high blood pressure. In addition to this, TELVAS CT 80MG TABLET also reduces the future risk of any stroke or heart attack.
