Telvas AM 80/5 Tablet is a combination medication containing two active ingredients: Telmisartan (80 mg) and Amlodipine (5 mg). It is primarily prescribed for the management of hypertension (high blood pressure).
- Telmisartan is an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the action of a natural substance in the body called angiotensin II, which is responsible for narrowing blood vessels. By blocking this action, Telmisartan helps to relax and widen the blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily and reducing blood pressure.
- Amlodipine is a Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB). It works by inhibiting the entry of calcium into the smooth muscle cells of the heart and blood vessels. This action leads to the relaxation and widening of blood vessels, which in turn reduces the resistance against which the heart has to pump blood, thus lowering blood pressure. Amlodipine also helps to reduce the workload on the heart.
By combining these two medications, Telvas AM 80/5 Tablet offers a dual mechanism of action, providing more effective blood pressure control than either medication used alone. This comprehensive approach helps to maintain a healthier blood pressure level and significantly reduces the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney problems.
It is typically taken once a day, with or without food, but at a fixed time each day for consistent results. It’s crucial to continue taking this medication as prescribed by your doctor, even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often has no noticeable symptoms.
