Temsan-AM Tablet contains two active ingredients:
Telmisartan (40 mg): This component belongs to the class of angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). It selectively binds to and blocks angiotensin II type-1 (AT1) receptors. This action inhibits the constrictive and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II, leading to dilated blood vessels, reduced retention of sodium and water, and decreased blood pressure.
S-Amlodipine (2.5 mg): This ingredient acts as a calcium channel blocker. It works by blocking the flow of calcium ions into the vascular smooth muscle cells and the heart's muscle cells. This relaxes your blood vessels, reduces resistance to blood flow, and consequently lowers your blood pressure.
