TELMA AM
- Hypertension (high blood pressure) management: The primary use of TELMA AM.
- Prevention of heart attack and stroke: By effectively controlling blood pressure.
- Management of angina (chest pain): Particularly when caused by coronary artery disease, as amlodipine helps improve blood flow to the heart.
- Kidney protection: Especially in patients with hypertension and diabetes, by reducing blood pressure and improving kidney function over time.
- Combination therapy: Can be used with other antihypertensive medications for better blood pressure control.

TELMA AM is a fixed-dose combination medication primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It combines two active ingredients that work synergistically to lower blood pressure and improve cardiovascular health:
-
Telmisartan: This belongs to a class of drugs called angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARBs). Angiotensin II is a hormone that causes blood vessels to narrow, leading to increased blood pressure. Telmisartan works by blocking the action of this hormone, thereby relaxing and widening the blood vessels. This improves blood flow and reduces the strain on the heart.
-
Amlodipine: This is a calcium channel blocker (CCB). Calcium channel blockers work by preventing calcium from entering the muscle cells of the heart and blood vessel walls. This causes the blood vessels to relax and widen, further reducing blood pressure and improving blood flow.
By combining these two mechanisms, TELMA AM provides a more comprehensive and effective reduction in blood pressure compared to using either medication alone. This dual action helps to:
- Relax and widen blood vessels: Making it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body.
- Improve blood flow: To the heart and other organs.
- Reduce the workload on the heart: Preventing it from having to pump against high resistance.
This ultimately leads to a decreased risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney problems.
