Telisa-A 40/5 mg combines two antihypertensive agents:
Telmisartan: An angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a substance that causes blood vessels to tighten.
Amlodipine: A calcium channel blocker (CCB) that relaxes the heart muscles and blood vessels, facilitating easier blood flow.
The combination of these two medications helps to lower blood pressure more effectively than either component alone, reducing the risk of cardiovascular events such as strokes and heart attacks.
