Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR’1*15

Product introduction
Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR is a prescription medicine used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). By lowering blood pressure, it helps prevent future heart attacks and strokes. Early treatment with this medicine also improves survival chances in patients who have suffered a heart attack.

It should be taken with food at a fixed time each day to maintain steady levels in the blood. Continue taking it as advised by your doctor, even if you feel well, since high blood pressure often has no symptoms. Stopping the medicine suddenly may worsen your condition. Along with the treatment, adopting a healthy lifestyle—regular exercise, balanced diet, and weight management—can further help control your blood pressure.

Uses of Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR
Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure)

Benefits of Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR
High blood pressure occurs when blood vessels become narrow, making it difficult for blood to flow smoothly to the heart. This increases strain on the heart and can lead to chest pain, heart attack, or stroke. Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR relaxes and widens blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily. This reduces strain on the heart, slows heart rate, and lowers the risk of heart attack, stroke, or kidney problems in the long term. You may not feel an immediate benefit, but regular use keeps your heart healthy over time.

Side effects of Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR
Most side effects are mild and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Common side effects include headache, weakness, dizziness, cold extremities, slow heart rate, increased potassium levels in blood, low blood pressure, orthostatic hypotension (drop in BP on standing), breathlessness, vomiting, and abdominal pain. Consult your doctor if side effects persist or cause concern. Avoid potassium-rich foods and supplements while taking this medicine. It may cause dizziness—avoid driving or rising quickly from a sitting or lying position. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, and electrolyte levels may be required during treatment.

How to use
Take as advised by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with food at the same time every day. Do not stop or change the dose without consulting your doctor.

How Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR works
Telpres-MT 50 Tablet PR contains two medicines: Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate. Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels, while Metoprolol Succinate is a beta-blocker that slows the heart rate and reduces strain on the heart. Together, they effectively lower blood pressure and improve heart health.
