About Telma D Tablet

Telma D Tablet belongs to the class of anti-hypertensives primarily taken to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). Hypertension or high blood pressure is a life-long or chronic condition in which the blood pressure against the artery wall becomes too high. It can lead to the risk of heart diseases, like heart attack and stroke.

Telma D Tablet is a combination of Telmisartan (angiotensin II receptor antagonist) and Indapamide (diuretic or water pill). Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker that helps to relax and widen the blood vessels (arteries). Indapamide is a diuretic that removes extra water and several electrolytes from the body. It also relaxes blood vessels and enhances blood flow. Together it lowers blood pressure and prevents the risk of stroke, heart attack and oedema (fluid retention).

Take Telma D Tablet as prescribed by your doctor. You are advised to take Telma D Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical conditions. You may experience nausea, diarrhoea, stomach pain, constipation, infection, headache, dizziness, back pain, inflammation of the nose, chest pain, weakness, indigestion, hypertonia (increased muscle tone), nervousness, peripheral oedema, sore throat, cough, conjunctivitis (inflammation in the eyeball), sinus inflammation. Most of these side effects of Telma D Tablet do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes unless the doctor has told you. In rare cases, Telma D Tablet can cause a condition that results in the skeletal muscle problem, leading to further kidney failure. If you notice unexplained muscle pain, dark colour urine, tenderness or weakness, especially if you also have a fever or unexplained tiredness, immediately contact the doctor.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Hypertension: It is a chronic condition when blood pressure is too high. This condition can lead to hardened arteries (blood vessels), decreasing the blood and oxygen flow to the heart. Blood pressure is the measurement of the force that our heart uses to pump blood to all parts of the body. Raised blood pressure can cause chest pain (angina) and heart attack (when blood supply to the heart is blocked). Additionally, high blood pressure also causes brain damage (stroke) and kidney failure. High blood pressure can be diagnosed with the help of a blood pressure monitor or sphygmomanometer. Systolic pressure is the pressure when the heart pumps blood out. On the other hand, diastolic pressure is when your heart is at the resting stage between heartbeats. If your blood pressure is 140/90 mm of Hg, it means the systolic pressure is 140 mm of Hg, and diastolic pressure is 90 mm of Hg. Ideal blood pressure should be between 90/60 mm of Hg and 120/80 mm of Hg.
