Sartel-C 40 Tablet

Product introduction
Sartel-C 40 Tablet is a combination medicine that helps manage high blood pressure. Keeping your blood pressure under control lowers the chances of heart attacks and strokes in the future.

This medicine can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time every day. The dosage depends on your health condition and how your body responds to the treatment. Since it contains a diuretic, it may cause you to urinate more often, so it’s best to avoid taking it close to bedtime. Even if you feel well, continue using it regularly as directed by your doctor because high blood pressure often has no symptoms. Stopping it suddenly may raise your risk of heart-related issues.

The most commonly reported side effect is dizziness. Some people may also experience headaches, nausea, diarrhea, or changes in blood cholesterol levels. Increased urination is a normal effect of chlorthalidone, which is one of the active ingredients, and it helps control blood pressure. If any side effects persist or bother you, inform your doctor. They may adjust your dose or suggest an alternative treatment.

This medicine is not suitable for use during pregnancy. If you have liver or kidney problems, heart issues, or diabetes, discuss it with your doctor before starting treatment. Avoid alcohol as it can intensify side effects and further lower your blood pressure.

Uses of Sartel-C Tablet
Used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).

Benefits of Sartel-C Tablet
Sartel-C 40 Tablet combines Telmisartan and Chlorthalidone to provide effective blood pressure control when a single medication is not enough. Telmisartan helps relax and widen blood vessels, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that helps remove excess water and salt from the body through urine, which also helps reduce blood pressure. Consistent use reduces the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and kidney-related complications. You may not notice an immediate benefit, but long-term use keeps your heart and blood vessels healthier.

Possible side effects
Most side effects are mild and tend to go away as your body adapts. Contact your doctor if they persist or worsen.
Common side effects include:

• Feeling dizzy

• Back discomfort

• Sinus problems

• Digestive disturbances such as diarrhea

• Rash or skin irritation

• Low potassium levels

How to take Sartel-C Tablet
Swallow the tablet whole with water. Do not chew or crush it. You may take it with or without food, but try to take it at a fixed time daily for best results.

How it works
This tablet contains two medicines that work together to control blood pressure. Telmisartan relaxes and widens blood vessels, while Chlorthalidone helps the body remove extra salt and water, both of which reduce blood pressure effectively.
