CTD-T Am 12.5/40/5 Tablet is taken orally.

• Chlorthalidone (12.5 mg): As a diuretic, chlorthalidone reduces fluid levels in the body by increasing urine output. It does so by inhibiting sodium and chloride reabsorption in certain parts of your kidneys, leading to increased excretion of these salts along with water. This process reduces the volume of fluid flowing through your blood vessels, thereby lowering your blood pressure.

• Telmisartan (40 mg): Telmisartan works by blocking angiotensin II, a substance that causes constriction or narrowing of blood vessels and secretion of aldosterone that can increase salt and water retention in your body. By blocking these actions, telmisartan helps widen blood vessels and reduce fluid volume, which in turn lowers blood pressure.

• Amlodipine (5 mg): This ingredient is a calcium channel blocker that inhibits the entry of calcium ions into the walls of blood vessels and heart muscles. This action relaxes and widens blood vessels, thus reducing blood pressure.

• Store CTD-T Am 12.5/40/5 Tablet in a cool, dry place, protected from light and moisture.

• The ideal storage temperature should not exceed 30°C.

• Keep this medicine out of the reach and sight of children.

• Always remember to use CTD-T Am 12.5/40/5 Tablet before the expiry date mentioned on the packaging.

• To help manage your hypertension, consider reducing your daily salt intake. Excessive salt can raise blood pressure.

• Incorporate regular, moderate exercise into your lifestyle. Physical activity can help lower your high blood pressure in addition to boosting overall heart health. However, always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regime.
