Co-Telsart

Description

Co-Telsart is a combination of an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, telmisartan, and a thiazide diuretic – hydrochlorothiazide. The combination of these ingredients has an additive antihypertensive effect which reduces blood pressure to a greater degree than either component alone. When received once daily within the therapeutic dosage range, Co-Telsart produces effective and smooth reduction in blood pressure.
