Product Overview
About MICARDIS 40MG TAB
MICARDIS 40MG TAB is a prescription medication containing the active ingredient Telmisartan, a type of angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARB). It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and to protect the kidneys from damage due to diabetes.
Key Benefits & Uses
- Treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension)
- Protection of the kidneys from damage due to diabetes
- Management of hypertension in patients with or without left ventricular hypertrophy
Active Ingredient & Action
Telmisartan works by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a potent vasoconstrictor, which is a part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). This leads to vasodilation, decreased peripheral resistance, and a subsequent decrease in blood pressure.
Important Notes
It is essential to take MICARDIS 40MG TAB exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor, as this may lead to a sudden increase in blood pressure. Inform your doctor about any medical conditions, including kidney disease, heart failure, or liver disease, before taking MICARDIS 40MG TAB.
