TELVAS H 80/12.5 (Telmisartan (80mg) + Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg))

Telvas H 80/12.5 Tablet is formulated with two active ingredients that work collaboratively to manage elevated blood pressure levels. It is typically prescribed when a single medication is insufficient to achieve adequate control of hypertension. Effectively lowering blood pressure can significantly decrease the likelihood of experiencing cardiovascular events such as heart attacks or strokes in the future. This medication can be taken with or without food, and the specific dosage will be tailored based on individual health conditions and responses to treatment. Consistency is key; taking the tablet at the same time each day is recommended. It is crucial to continue the medication as prescribed by your healthcare provider, even if you start feeling better, since high blood pressure often presents with no noticeable symptoms. Discontinuing the medication may elevate the risk of serious health complications. Telvas H 80/12.5 includes a diuretic component, which increases urination. Therefore, it is advisable to avoid taking the tablet within four hours prior to bedtime to minimize disturbances during the night. While common side effects include dizziness, you may also experience fatigue, nausea, shortness of breath, and changes in heart rhythm. Frequent urination is expected with this treatment rather than a side effect. Although other rare side effects may occur, it is important to refer to the informational leaflet accompanying the medication and consult your healthcare provider if you have concerns or if side effects persist. Adjustments to your dosage or switching to an alternative medication might be necessary if side effects become problematic. It is important to refrain from using potassium supplements or salt substitutes unless directed by a healthcare professional. This medication is generally contraindicated during pregnancy and lactation. Patients with pre-existing kidney or liver conditions, heart issues, or diabetes should consult their doctor before use. Alcohol consumption can lower blood pressure further and may lead to unwanted side effects.
