Micartel AM Tablet 1*15

Micartel AM 40mg/5mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that helps manage high blood pressure. It contains two active ingredients – Telmisartan and Amlodipine – which work together to relax blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood. Regular use of this tablet helps reduce the risk of serious heart conditions such as heart attack and stroke.
