Telpres AM 40 Tablet

Product Overview:
Telpres AM 40 Tablet contains a combination of two active ingredients that work together to help manage high blood pressure. By relaxing the blood vessels, this medication makes it easier for your heart to pump blood, which helps lower blood pressure and reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke.

You can take Telpres AM 40 Tablet with or without food, but it’s important to take it consistently at the same time each day as directed by your healthcare provider. Your dose will depend on your medical condition and how you respond to treatment. Even if you feel well, continue taking the medication as prescribed to maintain blood pressure control and reduce health risks. Along with medication, lifestyle changes such as staying active, quitting smoking, and eating a diet low in salt and fat can improve treatment outcomes.

Common side effects include swelling of the ankles or feet (edema), headache, drowsiness, dizziness, fatigue, and stomach upset. Since this medicine may cause sleepiness or dizziness, avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you. If side effects persist or are troublesome, consult your doctor.

Before starting Telpres AM 40 Tablet, inform your healthcare provider if you have kidney or liver problems or are severely dehydrated. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also seek medical advice prior to use. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure and kidney function may be necessary during treatment.

Uses:

• Managing high blood pressure (hypertension)

Benefits:
The combination of Telmisartan and Amlodipine in Telpres AM 40 Tablet helps lower blood pressure through two different mechanisms. Telmisartan relaxes blood vessels by blocking certain chemicals, while Amlodipine relaxes and widens blood vessels by affecting calcium channels. Together, they improve heart function and reduce blood pressure, helping to lower the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and kidney issues. Although you may not feel immediate effects, the medicine works over time to keep your blood pressure under control.

Side Effects:
Most side effects are mild and typically improve as your body adjusts. Notify your doctor if symptoms persist or worsen. Common side effects include:

• Drowsiness

• Swelling of ankles

• Headache

• Dizziness

• Fatigue

• Stomach discomfort

• Peripheral edema

• Sudden drop in blood pressure

How to Use:
Take the tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow it whole without chewing or crushing. It can be taken with or without food, but taking it at the same time each day helps maintain consistent blood levels.

How It Works:
Telpres AM 40 Tablet combines two medicines—Telmisartan (an angiotensin receptor blocker) and Amlodipine (a calcium channel blocker). These medicines work together to relax blood vessels and help the heart pump blood more effectively, resulting in reduced blood pressure.
