TELZIUM 40 contains Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) used primarily to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). By blocking the action of angiotensin II, a substance in the body that causes blood vessels to tighten, Telmisartan helps relax blood vessels, enabling smoother blood flow and lowering elevated blood pressure levels.

Managing high blood pressure is essential to prevent serious cardiovascular issues such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney problems. TELZIUM 40 is also sometimes used as part of treatment for heart failure and in protecting the kidneys in patients with diabetes who have protein in the urine.

It is typically administered once daily and works best when taken at the same time each day. When combined with lifestyle modifications such as reduced salt intake, regular exercise, and weight management, TELZIUM 40 helps maintain cardiovascular health and prevents future complications.
