CompositionTazloc-20 Tablet is used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and lower the risk of heart attack and stroke. It is a single-ingredient angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) containing telmisartan.
It is also used to help protect kidney function in people with high blood pressure and diabetes. Take it with or without food in the dose, frequency and duration prescribed by your doctor, and continue it even if you feel well, as high blood pressure rarely causes symptoms.
Reducing salt in your diet (including pickles, papad and packaged snacks), staying physically active, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding smoking and limiting alcohol can support blood pressure control alongside this medicine.
Before starting, tell your doctor about kidney or liver problems, heart disease or dehydration, and about all other medicines, supplements or herbal products you take. It must not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Tell your doctor if you develop swelling, severe dizziness or signs of high potassium such as muscle weakness or an irregular heartbeat. 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.
