Description:
Telma-AM H 80 Tablet is a combination medicine used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure), especially when one medication alone is not effective. By lowering blood pressure, it helps reduce the risk of serious complications such as heart attacks and strokes.
This medicine can be taken with or without food, but it’s important to take it at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your body. The dosage is determined based on your medical condition and response to treatment. Since it contains a diuretic (water pill), it may cause increased urination, so it’s best to avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime to prevent sleep disturbances. Even if you feel fine, continue taking the medication as prescribed. High blood pressure usually has no noticeable symptoms, and stopping treatment suddenly can increase the risk of health complications.
Common side effects include headache, dizziness, tiredness, taste changes, fatigue, flu-like symptoms, diarrhea, and sinusitis. Staying hydrated can help manage symptoms like dry mouth, extreme thirst, or muscle weakness. If any side effects become bothersome or persistent, consult your doctor for advice.
Before starting the medication, inform your doctor if you have any liver or kidney problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also seek medical guidance before using this medicine. Additionally, let your doctor know about any other medications you are taking, especially those for high blood pressure or heart conditions, to avoid potential interactions. Routine monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, electrolytes, and blood sugar levels may be recommended to ensure the medicine is working effectively and safely.
