Torque’S Telmitor H Tablets

Tablet

Oral

Each uncoated bilayered tablet contains:

• Telmisartan I.P. 40 mg
• Hydrochlorothiazide I.P. 12.5 mg
• Excipients q.s.

Telmisartan blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor in many tissues, such as vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland. Its action is therefore independent of the pathways for angiotensin II synthesis. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic. Thiazides have an effect on the renal tubular mechanisms of electrolyte reabsorption, directly increasing excretion of sodium and chloride in approximately equivalent amounts.

Torque’s Telmitor H Tablets are indicated for the treatment of hypertension to lower blood pressure.
