Telkonol 80 Strip Of 10 Tablets
Description
Telkonol 80Mg Tablet is a medicine used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. Controlling high blood pressure helps reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other heart-related complications. This medicine also supports kidney health, especially in people with diabetes, by helping to maintain proper blood flow and reduce kidney damage.
Telkonol 80Mg Tablet works by relaxing blood vessels, lowering blood pressure, and reducing the workload on the heart. This helps the heart pump blood more efficiently and decreases symptoms associated with heart failure, such as shortness of breath and swelling in the legs. Regular use as prescribed is essential for the best results.
You should take Telkonol 80Mg Tablet exactly as directed by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time each day. Do not skip doses or stop taking the medicine on your own, as this can worsen blood pressure control and increase the risk of heart problems.
Before starting Telkonol 80Mg Tablet, inform your doctor about your complete medical history, including any kidney or liver problems. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should also consult their doctor before using this medicine. Your doctor may adjust your dosage or recommend additional monitoring based on your health condition.
Some people may experience mild side effects, but if you notice symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, or unusual swelling, contact your doctor immediately. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, kidney function, and potassium levels is important while taking Telkonol 80Mg Tablet. Along with taking this medicine, maintaining a heart-healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet, exercise, and avoiding excessive salt, supports effective blood pressure control.
