Faq For Medicine

Q1.What is Tellzy-CH 80 Tablet used for?

When one medicine isn't enough to lower blood pressure, this is employed. It helps keep your heart, brain, and kidneys healthy.

Chlorthalidone makes you urinate more, so take it once a day in the morning, preferably after breakfast.

Yes, you can take it with or without food. For optimal effects, though, try to take it at the same time every day.

Expert Advice

• Take the tablet every day at the same time, ideally in the morning.
• Don't drink too much alcohol or salt.
• Drink enough water, but not too much.
• Check your blood pressure, electrolytes (sodium and potassium), and kidney function on a regular basis.
• Do not use when pregnant or nursing.
• Don't take potassium supplements unless your doctor tells you to.
• Tell someone right away if you have symptoms like constant dizziness, muscle cramps, or swelling.

Side Effects

• Some common side effects are:
• Feeling dizzy or light-headed
• More frequent urination
• Tiredness or weakness
• Low blood pressure (hypotension)
• Cramps in the muscles
• Thirsty or dry mouth
• Side effects that are less prevalent or more serious:
• Too much potassium (hyperkalemia)
• Not enough sodium or magnesium
• High uric acid (gout)
• Problems with the kidneys
• Heartbeats that aren't regular
• Allergic response (rash, itching, swelling, trouble breathing)
• If you have severe dizziness or difficulties breathing, see a doctor.

 How It Works

• Telmisartan (80 mg) is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that stops angiotensin II, a substance that makes blood vessels tighter. This makes them relax and widen, which reduces blood pressure.
• Chlorthalidone (12.5 mg): A thiazide-like diuretic (water pill) that helps the body get rid of extra salt and water through urine, which lowers blood volume and pressure.
• Combined Effect: It works in two ways: it relaxes blood vessels and gets rid of extra fluid, which helps control blood pressure and preserve the heart and blood vessels for a longer time.

Medicine Interaction

• Do not use with:
• ACE inhibitors, like Enalapril and Lisinopril, can hurt your kidneys or lower your blood pressure.
• Potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretics (such Spironolactone or Amiloride) may raise potassium levels.
• NSAIDs, including ibuprofen and diclofenac, drop blood pressure less and hurt the kidneys.
• Lithium: makes lithium more poisonous.
• Chlorthalidone, an antidiabetic medication, may elevate blood sugar.
• Alcohol or sedatives can make you feel sleepy and lower your blood pressure.
• Always let your doctor know about any additional prescription, herbal, or over-the-counter drugs you are taking.

 How to Use

• Do not crush or chew the pill; just take it with a glass of water once a day.
• Take it in the morning if you can to avoid having to pee at night.
• If you forget to take a dose, take it as soon as you recall. If it's close to the next dose, skip the one you missed. Never take two doses at once.
• Even if you feel OK, keep taking your medicine because high blood pressure typically doesn't have any symptoms.

 Uses / Indications

• Primary Hypertension (Elevated Blood Pressure)
• Avoiding heart attacks and strokes
• Safeguarding renal function in individuals with diabetes or hypertension
• Long-term management of regulated blood pressure
