Used For:
Telmisartan and Amlodipine is a combination medication used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension). It combines two mechanisms to lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events like heart attack and stroke:
- Telmisartan: An angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels, preventing the hormone angiotensin II from constricting them.
- Amlodipine: A calcium channel blocker (CCB) that relaxes the blood vessels and improves blood flow by preventing calcium from entering the smooth muscle cells of the arteries.
-
Common:
- Dizziness or lightheadedness.
- Swelling of ankles or feet (edema).
- Headache.
- Fatigue or tiredness.
- Flushing (warmth, redness).
-
Less common:
- Low blood pressure (hypotension).
- Palpitations or fast heart rate.
- Abdominal pain, nausea, or diarrhea.
-
Rare but serious:
- Severe allergic reactions (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing).
- Hyperkalemia (elevated potassium levels).
- Worsening of kidney function.
- Allergies: Avoid if allergic to telmisartan, amlodipine, or similar medications.
- Pregnancy: Not recommended during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters (risk of harm to the fetus).
- Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor, as safety during breastfeeding is unclear.
- Kidney or liver problems: Use with caution; regular monitoring may be required.
- Heart conditions: Inform your doctor if you have severe aortic stenosis, heart failure, or a history of heart attack.
- Potassium levels: Avoid potassium supplements or salt substitutes without consulting your doctor.
- Alcohol: Limit alcohol intake, as it may increase the risk of dizziness or fainting.
