Auroamtel 5/80 Tablet

Product Overview

Auroamtel 5/80 Tablet combines two medicines that work together to manage high blood pressure. It helps by relaxing the blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood, which in turn reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

This medication can be taken with or without food, though it is advisable to take it at the same time each day as prescribed by your doctor. The dose will be based on your medical condition and how your body responds. Even if you feel fine, it’s important to continue taking this medication as directed, because controlling your blood pressure helps protect against serious health issues. A healthy lifestyle, such as regular exercise, a low-fat and low-salt diet, and avoiding tobacco, can enhance its effectiveness.

Common side effects include swelling in the ankles or feet, headache, sleepiness, dizziness, fatigue, and upset stomach. Since it may cause drowsiness or light-headedness, avoid driving or performing tasks that require focus until you know how the medicine affects you. If side effects persist or worsen, consult your doctor.

Before using this medicine, inform your healthcare provider if you have kidney or liver problems or are severely dehydrated. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before starting this treatment. Regular blood pressure monitoring and kidney function tests may be necessary during treatment.

Uses

Management of high blood pressure (hypertension)

Benefits

The two medicines in this tablet lower blood pressure through different mechanisms. By helping to relax blood vessels and improve heart function, they reduce the strain on the cardiovascular system. Proper blood pressure control can significantly lower the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney-related problems. Although you might not notice immediate effects, consistent use helps maintain long-term health.

Possible Side Effects

Most side effects are temporary and tend to disappear as your body adjusts. Seek medical advice if they persist or become bothersome. Common side effects include:

Sleepiness

Swelling of the ankles or feet

Headache

Dizziness

Fatigue

Stomach upset

Peripheral edema

Sudden drop in blood pressure

How to Use

Take the tablet exactly as directed by your doctor. Swallow it whole without chewing or crushing. You may take it with or without food, but it’s best to stick to a fixed schedule for consistent results.

How It Works

Auroamtel 5/80 Tablet contains Telmisartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), and Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker (CCB). Telmisartan helps relax blood vessels by blocking certain hormones, while Amlodipine improves blood flow by preventing calcium from tightening blood vessels. Together, they effectively lower blood pressure and ease the workload on the heart.
