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.

Hello, antihypertensive medication usually continued life long and stoping them may cause relapse however if you stop them then do exercise and good diet control
and follow up with your nearest doctor.
Good luck.
