How it Works?

Telniz 40 Tablet contains telmisartan (40 mg), which provides therapeutic effects through:

• Angiotensin II Blockage: Telmisartan obstructs angiotensin II, a hormone responsible for vasoconstriction and elevated blood pressure.

• Blood Vessel Relaxation: By impeding the action of angiotensin II, telmisartan aids in the relaxation and dilation of blood vessels, facilitating smoother blood flow and reducing blood pressure.

• Heart Workload Reduction: The relaxation of blood vessels decreases the pressure against which the heart must pump, thus lessening cardiac workload.
