Uses of Telmaheal 40H Tablet
Telmaheal 40H Tablet may be prescribed for:
- High blood pressure
- Hypertension management
- Blood pressure control when single medicine is not enough

Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker, which helps relax blood vessels. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic, also called a water pill, which helps remove extra salt and water from the body to lower blood pressure.
How Telmaheal 40H Tablet Works
Telmaheal 40H Tablet contains two medicines:
Telmisartan:
Telmisartan relaxes and widens blood vessels, making it easier for blood to flow and reducing blood pressure.
Hydrochlorothiazide:
Hydrochlorothiazide helps the body remove excess water and salt through urine. This reduces fluid load and helps lower blood pressure.
Together, these two ingredients provide stronger blood pressure control than either medicine alone in selected patients.
