CompositionTELMINORM BXL 40/50 TABLET 10 is a medicine used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults. By keeping blood pressure under control, it helps reduce the risk of serious problems such as heart attack and stroke, and it can be useful for people who cannot take ACE inhibitors.
It contains telmisartan and metoprolol, which belong to groups of medicines called angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) and beta-blockers. It relax the blood vessels and slow the heart rate. It is usually taken at the same time each day. Continue taking it even if you feel well, and do not stop a beta-blocker-containing medicine suddenly, as this can worsen heart problems.
Healthy lifestyle changes support blood pressure control alongside this medicine. These include reducing salt in your diet, staying physically active, maintaining a healthy weight, and limiting alcohol.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have asthma or breathing problems, a slow heart rate, kidney problems, or diabetes, or are pregnant or planning pregnancy, as it is not suitable in pregnancy. Your doctor may check your kidney function and potassium levels while you are taking it.
