CompositionNewtel CH 40 Tablet is used to control high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and protect the heart and kidneys. It is a combination medicine containing telmisartan (an angiotensin receptor blocker) and chlorthalidone (a thiazide-like diuretic).
Effective control lowers the long-term risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney disease. Take it preferably in the morning in the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor, and continue it, as high blood pressure usually has no warning symptoms.
Restrict salt from pickles, papad and packaged snacks, take regular moderate exercise, keep to a healthy weight and limit alcohol.
Before starting, tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, gout, low blood potassium or diabetes, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. It is not suitable during pregnancy. Periodic blood tests will check kidney function and electrolytes. Report severe dizziness, fainting or muscle cramps. Follow the prescribed dose, frequency and duration, report persistent or serious side effects, and do not stop the medicine unless your doctor advises you to do so.
