Microalbuminuria indicates that diabetes has affected the filtering function of kidneys. The aim of telmisartan is to prevent further kidney damage as may happen in diabetes. Don't chase the microalbumin values. There is no point in repeating it frequently.

1) You are effectively taking three tablets, Amlodipine Metoprolol and Telmisartan
2) Doses of all the medicines are small, so your question is justified 3) For a 10-15 mm change in BP you can try for aggressive diet and exercise schedules.

Take it at a fixed time everyday. Early morning is a good time to take it, so yes you can take it before you go for exercise.

Telma Am has two medicines in it, maybe you need one of these not two. See your doctor and get it adjusted as per your BP requirements.

Hello asabdullah, since telma is a long acting drug, od dose (once a day) is preferred rather than twice a day. So 80 mg once is better than 40 mg twice. Usually first 40 mg once a day is started (provided renal function tests are normal) and if bp not controlled, then can escalate the dose to 80 mg once a day. Also concentrate on diet and lifestyle modifications.

Dear Lybrateuser,
- Your BP is under control due to medication
- also you have to follow a strict diet & exercise regimen
- it is advisable to consult your treating physician before you make any changes in your medicine schedule as there are always chances of the BP shooting up again.
