Temsan-80 H Tablet

Composition: Telmisartan (80mg) + Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg)

Key Benefits

• Lowers blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels (telmisartan) and removing excess fluid (diuretic effect).

• Reduces risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage.

Dosage & Administration

• Dose: As prescribed (usually once daily).

• Timing: Take at the same time daily, with or without food. Avoid bedtime doses to prevent frequent urination at night.

• Missed Dose: Skip if close to next dose; never double dose.

Side Effects

• Common: Dizziness, fatigue, nausea, low magnesium.

• Note: Frequent urination is expected (due to diuretic action).

Safety Warnings

• Avoid in: Pregnancy (harmful to fetus), severe kidney disease.

• Caution in: Liver disease, breastfeeding, driving (may cause drowsiness/dizziness).

• Interactions: Avoid alcohol (lowers BP further), potassium supplements/salt substitutes (unless prescribed).

Important

• Do not stop abruptly (risk of BP spikes).

• No symptom relief? Continue taking—hypertension is often asymptomatic.

Consult your doctor for dose adjustments or if side effects persist.
