CompositionEritel 40 Tablet is used to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) and to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events like stroke and heart attack in high-risk patients. By maintaining stable blood pressure, it helps reduce the risk of damage to the kidneys and heart. It is often prescribed for long-term use to help maintain healthy blood vessel function.
This medication contains Telmisartan, an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the action of a natural substance called angiotensin II, which causes blood vessels to tighten and narrow. By blocking this effect, Telmisartan allows the blood vessels to relax and widen, which lowers blood pressure and makes it easier for the heart to pump blood.
Take this tablet once daily, with or without food, as prescribed by your doctor. It is important to take it at the same time every day to maintain a consistent level in your bloodstream. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, as this medication can be harmful to an unborn baby. Also, notify your healthcare provider if you have a history of liver disease or if you are taking potassium supplements.
