Telsartan 40 Tablet

Telsartan 40 Tablet is used to manage high blood pressure and heart failure. By lowering blood pressure, it helps protect against heart attacks and strokes. It also supports kidney health, especially in patients with diabetes.

This tablet can be prescribed alone or alongside other medications. It may be taken with meals or on an empty stomach, but should be taken consistently at the same time each day for best results. Even if you feel well or your blood pressure is normal, do not stop taking it on your own, as high blood pressure often does not produce noticeable symptoms.

In addition to taking Telsartan 40 Tablet, lifestyle adjustments can improve results. These include engaging in regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding tobacco, limiting alcohol, and reducing salt intake as recommended by your doctor.

Possible Side Effects

Some common reactions include diarrhea, back discomfort, sinus inflammation, and skin ulcers. If any of these persist or become troublesome, consult your healthcare provider. Adjustments in dosage or switching to an alternative medicine may be considered.

Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney issues. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek medical guidance before use. While on treatment, your doctor may monitor blood pressure, kidney function, and potassium levels periodically.

Uses

• Management of high blood pressure

• Treatment of heart failure

Benefits

Telsartan 40 Tablet works by relaxing blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily and reducing the heart’s workload. Regular use as prescribed helps lower the risk of complications such as heart disease, kidney damage, and stroke.

How to Take

How It Works

Telsartan 40 Tablet is an angiotensin receptor blocker. It prevents a chemical that tightens blood vessels from acting, allowing the vessels to remain relaxed. This reduces blood pressure and improves blood flow to organs while making it easier for the heart to pump.
