Uses of Co-Telsan 80 mg / 12.5 mg Tablet

Co-Telsan 80 mg / 12.5 mg Tablet is used to treat high blood pressure in adults whose blood pressure is not well controlled with telmisartan alone. Combining two medicines in one tablet helps lower blood pressure further and keeps treatment simple. Keeping blood pressure under control reduces the risk of stroke, heart attack, heart failure and kidney damage over time.

How Co-Telsan 80 mg / 12.5 mg Tablet works

Telmisartan blocks angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels, so the vessels relax and widen. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that helps the kidneys remove extra salt and water. Working together, the two lower blood pressure more than either one alone.

Precautions and warnings
