Description:
Telma-AM Tablet is a combination medicine used to manage high blood pressure. It works by relaxing the blood vessels, which allows blood to flow more easily and makes it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. This helps to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
The tablet can be taken with or without food, but it is best to take it at the same time each day as prescribed by your doctor. The dosage will be based on your specific condition and how you respond to the treatment. Even if you feel well, it is important to continue taking the medication, as it plays a key role in keeping your blood pressure under control and reducing cardiovascular risks. Lifestyle changes like regular physical activity, quitting smoking, and following a low-salt, low-fat diet can enhance the effectiveness of this medication.
Common side effects may include swelling of the ankles or feet (edema), headache, dizziness, sleepiness, tiredness, and an upset stomach. Since the medicine may cause drowsiness or dizziness, avoid driving or engaging in activities that require full concentration until you know how it affects you. If any of these side effects persist or become troublesome, consult your doctor for guidance.
Before starting Telma-AM, inform your doctor if you have any history of kidney or liver issues, or if you are severely dehydrated. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also seek medical advice before using this medication. During treatment, your doctor will regularly monitor your blood pressure and may perform tests to check your kidney function to ensure the medicine is working safely and effectively.
