Telsartan LN 10mg/40mg Tablet

Telsartan LN 10mg/40mg Tablet is a combination medicine designed to manage high blood pressure. It works by relaxing blood vessels and supporting the heart in circulating blood more efficiently, which helps lower blood pressure and reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

This medicine can be taken with or without meals, but it is best to take it consistently at the same time each day as recommended by your doctor. The dosage depends on your condition and how you respond to the treatment. It is important to continue taking it even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often shows no symptoms. Healthy lifestyle choices, such as maintaining physical activity, quitting smoking, and following a low-salt, low-fat diet, can enhance the effect of this medicine.

Possible Side Effects

Consult your doctor if side effects are persistent or interfere with your daily routine.

Before using Telsartan LN, inform your healthcare provider if you have kidney or liver problems, or if you are experiencing severe dehydration. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should seek medical advice before starting this medicine. While on treatment, blood pressure and kidney function may need regular monitoring.
