Telvas CT LS Tablet

Product Overview

Telvas CT LS Tablet is a combination medication containing two active ingredients that work together to help control high blood pressure. Reducing blood pressure lowers the risk of serious health problems such as heart attacks and strokes in the future.

This medicine can be taken with or without food, but it is best to take it at the same time each day for optimal results. The dosage will be based on your health condition and how your body responds to the treatment. It’s important to continue using the medication as prescribed, even if you feel fine, because high blood pressure often doesn’t show symptoms. Stopping the treatment without medical advice could increase your risk of heart-related issues.

Since one of the ingredients is a diuretic (water pill), it may cause increased urination. For this reason, it’s best to avoid taking the tablet within four hours before bedtime. Regular use of the medication is essential for long-term health benefits.

Possible Side Effects

The most commonly reported side effect is dizziness. Other potential side effects may include:

Nausea

Diarrhea

Headache

Changes in blood lipid levels

Back pain

Sinus infections

Skin rashes or bumps

Decreased potassium levels

Increased uric acid levels

Postural hypertension (changes in blood pressure when standing)

Digestive disturbances

Increased urination is not a side effect but an expected response that helps control blood pressure. If you experience persistent or bothersome side effects, talk to your doctor. Adjustments in dosage or alternate treatments may be recommended.

Precautions

Before starting this medication, inform your doctor if you have any kidney or liver issues, heart problems, or diabetes. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before using this medicine, as it may pose risks. Alcohol consumption should be avoided during treatment as it can worsen side effects and further lower blood pressure.

While on this medication, your doctor may monitor your kidney function, blood pressure, and electrolyte levels periodically to ensure safe and effective treatment.

Uses

Treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension)

Management of heart failure

Reduction in the risk of heart attack and stroke

How It Works

Telvas CT LS Tablet contains Telmisartan and Chlorthalidone. Telmisartan relaxes and widens blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily, which helps lower blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that increases urine output, helping to remove excess salt and water from the body, which further assists in controlling blood pressure. Regular use of this combination reduces the risk of heart-related problems and kidney damage.

How to Use

Take this tablet exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow it whole without chewing, crushing, or breaking it. The medicine can be taken with or without food, but it’s best to stick to the same time each day.
