Telma 80-Am Tablet Health Feed

Hello, Thanks for the query.
I am sure there must other brands of Telmisartan 40 mg with hydrochlorthiazide 12.5 mg available. You can buy those. Cutting the tablet does not give accurate dosage. There are q number of brands of Telmisartan in the market. Thanks.

Telma ct contains telmisartan 80 mg and chlorthalidone 6.25 mgs. You can ask the pharmacist to give you medicine containing the same of any reputed manufacturer.
If its still unavailable then you can contact your physician to change the type of drug prescribed.

Thanks for the query.
Amlodepine does lead to pedal swelling. If it is persistent and trouble some, then you should consider changing the drug. There are better options available. Thanks.

Yes you can take all these medications in place of telma. These all have the same compound. Telmisartan. Also you should do diet and exercise DASH stands for Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension.

Hi, Lybrate user,
telma 40 contains "telmisartan" only but 'telma h 'includes "hydrochlorothiazide" with telmisartan, required to treat oedema of feet due to retention of fluid.
Moreover, you need to assess your physical condition, first to start telma h.
Tk, care.

Lybrate-user, Thanks for the query.
Telmisartan plus Amlodepine (TELMA AM) is a good and safe combination. The other tablet mentioned is Losartan + Hydrochlothiazide. That too is good. Doctor must have changed to newer drug for getting better control. But if she is not comfortable with that, she can take the earlier combination. Thanks.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Since he is on two different tablets (Telmisartan + Hydrochlorthiazide & Metoprolol), it is possible that the medications are still not adequate. Some additional treatment is necessary for better control. Thanks.

Telma is considered good with patients with diabetes and that's why doctor suggested.
people just see mg of medicine and believe that telma 40 mg is too high dose than amlodopine 2.5mg.
which is very wrong

please don't follow random suggestions.

the blood pressure at this range can be managed without medicines also.
try salt restricted diet.
yoga and pranayama.

or take Homoeopathic treatment.

Hello lybrate-user.
There is a safer option in homoeopathic treatment.
It can not only reduce the kidney problems but can also control blood pressure.
You should take proper homoeopathic treatment.
You can consult me at Lybrate.
