Eritel Ch 40mg Strip Of 10 Tablets
Medical Description
Eritel-CH 40 tablets are a combination of two medicines, chlorthalidone and telmisartan, that are used to lower high blood pressure when a single medicine is not effective. These medicines work by relaxing blood vessels and increasing urine output, which lowers blood pressure.
Eritel-CH 40 tablets should not be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women. Do not stop taking this medicine suddenly, as it could cause your blood pressure to rise suddenly and make you worse. Always take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor.
Tazloc Ct tablet, Eritel Ch tablet, Telma Ct tablet, Telmikind Ct tablet and Telvas Ct tablet are a few more tablets with the combination of telmisartan and chlorthalodone. High blood pressure is a serious medical condition. If not treated properly, it can cause other health problems and affect other parts of the body, such as the brain, heart, blood vessels and kidneys. As a result, it is recommended that, in addition to taking Eritel-CH 40 tablets on time, you also incorporate certain lifestyle changes. Eating a low-fat, low-salt diet, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising for 30 minutes every day, taking medications as prescribed, not smoking and limiting alcohol consumption are a few of these changes.
