Medical Description

Telvas Ct Tablet is a combination of two medicines, chlorthalidone and telmisartan, that are used to lower blood pressure when they cannot be controlled with a single medicine. It belongs to the class of medicines known as diuretics and angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), respectively. Diuretics help to remove excess fluid from the body, while ARBs help to relax blood vessels. Telvas Ct Tablet works by combining these effects to lower blood pressure.

Telvas Ct Tablet should not be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women. It is also important to take this medicine as prescribed by your doctor and to not stop taking it abruptly, as this can cause a sudden increase in blood pressure. Tazloc Ct tablet, Eritel Ch tablet, Telma Ct tablet, Telmikind Ct tablet, Telvas Ct tablet, Ctd T tablet and Telpres Ct tablet also contain the combination of Chlorthalidone and Telmisartan.
