Medicinal Benefits:

Telmizio CH 40 Tablet belongs to the class of anti-hypertensives primarily taken to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). Telmizio CH 40 Tablet is a combination of Telmisartan (angiotensin II receptor antagonist) and Chlorthalidone (thiazide diuretic or water pill). Telmizio CH 40 Tablet works by relaxing and widening the blood vessels (arteries), making the heart more efficient at pumping blood throughout the body. It helps to lower high blood pressure, thus reduces the chances of future heart attack and stroke. Besides this, it prevents excessive water and electrolytes (like sodium, potassium, etc.) from the body through urine which can otherwise raise high blood pressure. In addition to this, Telmizio CH 40 Tablet also reduces the future risk of any stroke or heart attack.
