Description:
Telvas-CT 40 Tablet is a combination medicine used to manage high blood pressure. It contains two active ingredients that work together to relax blood vessels and reduce excess fluid in the body, helping to lower blood pressure effectively. By doing so, it significantly lowers the risk of heart attacks and strokes in the future.
The medicine can be taken with or without food, but it’s important to take it at the same time each day as prescribed. Since it includes a diuretic (water pill), it increases urination, so it’s best to avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime to prevent disruptions during the night. Even if you feel well, continue taking the medicine regularly, as high blood pressure often shows no symptoms. Stopping the medication without your doctor’s guidance could increase your risk of serious health complications.
The most common side effect of Telvas-CT 40 is dizziness. Other possible side effects include nausea, diarrhea, headache, and changes in blood lipid levels. Frequent urination is not a side effect but rather an intended action of the diuretic component, chlorthalidone, which helps manage your blood pressure. While most side effects are mild and temporary, it’s important to read the leaflet that comes with the medicine and inform your doctor if any effects persist or cause concern. Your doctor may adjust your dosage or suggest an alternative if needed.
This medication is not recommended during pregnancy, and you should consult your doctor before using it if you have kidney or liver disease, heart conditions, or diabetes. Additionally, consuming alcohol may further lower your blood pressure and increase the risk of side effects, so it’s best to use caution.
