Cilnidipine, Telmisartan

Cilnidipine and Telmisartan is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It contains two active ingredients: Cilnidipine, which is a calcium channel blocker, and Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB).
Cilnidipine works by relaxing the muscles in the blood vessels, which allows the blood to flow more easily and reduces blood pressure. Telmisartan, on the other hand, blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels and increases blood pressure. By combining these two medications, the treatment is more effective in lowering blood pressure than using either drug alone.
High blood pressure is a common condition that can lead to serious health problems, such as heart attacks, strokes, and kidney disease, if left untreated. By using Cilnidipine and Telmisartan, patients can better manage their blood pressure and reduce the risk of these complications.
It is important to take this medication exactly as prescribed by a healthcare professional. The dosage will depend on the individual’s specific medical condition and response to treatment. Patients should not stop taking this medication without consulting their doctor, as sudden discontinuation can lead to an increase in blood pressure.
Cilnidipine and Telmisartan may cause side effects, such as dizziness, headache, or fatigue. Most side effects are mild and do not require medical attention. However, if any side effects persist or worsen, patients should contact their healthcare provider.
