Amlopres TL Tablet

Product Overview

Amlopres TL Tablet is a combination medicine designed to help manage high blood pressure (hypertension). It works by relaxing blood vessels, which makes it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. This action helps lower blood pressure and decreases the risk of heart-related issues such as heart attacks and strokes.

You can take this medicine with or without food, but it’s best to follow a consistent schedule as advised by your healthcare provider. The dose will be tailored to your condition and response to treatment. It’s essential to continue taking the medicine regularly, even if you feel well, as untreated high blood pressure can lead to serious complications. Alongside medication, adopting healthy lifestyle choices—like regular exercise, quitting smoking, and eating a balanced diet low in salt and fats—can further enhance its effectiveness.

How to Use

Take the tablet as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow it whole without breaking or chewing. You may take it with or without food, but maintaining a fixed schedule will help ensure optimal results. If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it’s near the time for the next dose—then skip the missed one. Avoid doubling doses.

Uses

Management of high blood pressure (hypertension)

Benefits

The two medicines in this tablet, Telmisartan and Amlodipine, work together to lower blood pressure by relaxing the blood vessels and improving heart function. With regular use, this helps reduce the risk of cardiovascular events, kidney problems, and strokes. Even if you don’t feel immediate benefits, the medicine supports long-term health and stability.

Possible Side Effects

Most side effects are mild and tend to go away as your body adjusts. If they persist or cause concern, consult your doctor for advice.

Common side effects may include:

Sleepiness

Swelling of ankles or feet

Headache

Dizziness

Fatigue

Upset stomach

Peripheral edema

Sudden drop in blood pressure

How It Works

Amlopres TL Tablet combines:

Telmisartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), which helps to relax blood vessels.

Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker (CCB), which helps reduce the workload on the heart by widening arteries.

Together, these medicines make it easier for blood to circulate efficiently, resulting in lower blood pressure and reduced strain on the heart.
