How Telmed Act Products work
Telmisartan + Amlodipine + Chlorthalidone is a combination of three medicines: Telmisartan + Amlodipine + Chlorthalidone1, Telmisartan + Amlodipine + Chlorthalidone2 and Telmisartan + Amlodipine + Chlorthalidone3. Telmisartan + Amlodipine + Chlorthalidone1 is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) and Telmisartan + Amlodipine + Chlorthalidone2 is a calcium channel blocker (CCB). They work by widening and relaxing the blood vessels, thereby lowering blood pressure. Telmisartan + Amlodipine + Chlorthalidone3 is a diuretic which removes extra water and certain electrolytes from the body through urine. Over time it also works by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow.
