TELMISARTAN 80

Manufacturer: Actavis
Package: 28 tablets
Common Names: Telmisartan 28x80mg, Telmisartan 80mg, Telmisartan 80mg Tablets, Telmisartan Tablets, Telmisartan

Info: Telmisartan 28x80mg contains telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) used primarily for the treatment of hypertension. Telmisartan selectively blocks the action of angiotensin II at AT1 receptors, reducing vasoconstriction and the effects that contribute to elevated blood pressure. Its mechanism promotes vasodilation and lowers peripheral vascular resistance, helping to control blood pressure.

Effects

Blood Pressure Control: Telmisartan lowers blood pressure by blocking the effects of angiotensin II and reducing vascular resistance.

Renin-Angiotensin System Modulation: By inhibiting the effects of angiotensin II at AT1 receptors, telmisartan reduces activity within the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which plays an important role in blood pressure regulation.

Dosage Range and Duration of Use

Telmisartan 28x80mg contains 80 mg of telmisartan per tablet. The usual recommended starting dose for the treatment of hypertension in adults is 40 mg once daily. Depending on the individual's response, the dose may be increased to 80 mg once daily. Some patients may achieve adequate blood pressure control with 20 mg daily. Telmisartan can be taken with or without food and should generally be taken at approximately the same time each day. Treatment duration is determined by the individual's clinical condition and medical guidance.

Side Effects

The safety profile of telmisartan has been evaluated in clinical use, although individual reactions may vary. Commonly reported adverse effects include dizziness, headache, fatigue, back pain, gastrointestinal discomfort, and hypotension. Changes in kidney function and increased blood potassium levels may also occur, particularly in patients with impaired renal function or those taking medicines that affect potassium balance.

Post-Cycle Therapy

Telmisartan contains an angiotensin II receptor blocker and is not an anabolic steroid, androgenic compound, or testosterone-suppressing agent. Conventional post-cycle therapy (PCT), as used following anabolic steroid cycles, is therefore not applicable. Telmisartan is an antihypertensive medication intended for the management of high blood pressure and should be used according to appropriate medical guidance.

Storage:

Keep Telmisartan 28x80mg in its original packaging and store it according to the manufacturer's recommendations. Protect the tablets from excessive heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Keep the product out of the reach of children and do not use it after the expiration date shown on the packaging.
