Tazloc H 40mg Strip Of 10 Tablets
Medical Description
Tazloc-H tablet contains a combination of Telmisartan and Hydrochlorothiazide, an anti-hypertensive as its active ingredient. Tazloc-H tablet is used to treat high blood pressure when it cannot be managed using a single medicine. This medicine lowers the raised blood pressure. Tazloc-H tablet acts by relaxing the blood vessels and increasing diuresis, which works synergistically to lower the raised blood pressure.

Always take it as prescribed and advised by your doctor. Visit a nearby clinic or hospital in case of any side effect that worsens or remains persistent.
