About Benitowa TM Tablet

Benitowa TM Tablet belongs to the group of medicines called anti-hypertensive agents used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Benitowa TM Tablet helps lower blood pressure, thereby reducing the chances of heart problems such as heart attack and stroke. High blood pressure is a condition in which the blood exerts increased pressure on the walls of blood vessels. 
 
Benitowa TM Tablet consists of Benidipine and Telmisartan. Benidipine acts on the calcium channels of the blood vessels and enlarges the coronary vessel and peripheral arteries, and helps smooth blood flow. Telmisartan relaxes the blood vessels by blocking the effect of the angiotensin II receptor. Together, these drugs help treat hypertension.
 
In some cases, Benitowa TM Tablet may cause side effects, such as headache, dizziness, tiredness, and stomach upset. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
