Telma 20 Effect
(Newest replies first)

I am 45 years old having family history of hypertension. That's why my doctor advised to take telma 20 as 1-0-0 on daily basis. My BP is quite normal 120/80 whether I take the medicine or not. Only on account of family history I have been advised to take the tablet for life time as mentioned above. Is there any side effects?

My Bp is 160/100, age 44, male. The physician told me to take Telma CT, and cildip 10, twice a day. I was taking it twice but got a light headache. My cholesterol is normal and lipid profile was 252 in 27/06/2017. The physician told me to take Rosulip - f 10 for 3 months. After three months the lipid profile is 135 (normal), but my Bp is still 150/95 or 160/100. The left side of my lungs will be hard for 2 to 3 hours and sometimes it will be normal. This has been going on for 3 months. What should I do to make my Bp normal?

Hello, Rao! How are you?

All medications carry the risk of causing side effects, Telmisartan may cause nausea, dizziness, headache, cough and stomach pain. Your doctor should also be doing blood work, occasionally, to check your kidney function.

Binod, there is a chance that the medication is the only thing keeping your blood pressure at normal levels, so lowering the dose could be risky, it may cause it to elevate, again. Thus, you shouldn't make any changes, unless your doctor tells you that it is okay for you to do so.

Is there anything else I can help with?
