Overview
Amtel 80/5mg Tablets (30 pack) combine two blood-pressure medicines in one tablet: telmisartan 80mg, an angiotensin-receptor blocker (ARB), and amlodipine 5mg, a calcium-channel blocker. Telmisartan relaxes blood vessels by blocking a hormone that tightens them, while amlodipine widens the vessels directly. Together giving strong, smooth 24-hour blood-pressure control from a single daily tablet. This combination is used when one medicine alone is not enough to reach target blood pressure. Lowering blood pressure helps protect against stroke, heart attack and kidney damage. A doctor-prescribed option for people with hypertension. Confirm the actives on the pack.
Actives: Telmisartan 80mg and Amlodipine 5mg (as besylate) per tablet.
Directions for Use
This is a prescription medicine. Take only as directed by your doctor. Usually one tablet once daily, at the same time each day, with or without food, swallowed with water. Keep taking it even when you feel well, as high blood pressure often has no symptoms. Do not stop suddenly without advice. Attend regular blood-pressure checks so the dose can be adjusted if needed.
Do not use in pregnancy. ARBs can harm the unborn baby; tell your doctor at once if you become or plan to become pregnant. May cause dizziness, especially at first or on standing. Rise slowly. Ankle swelling, flushing or headache can occur from the amlodipine component. Tell your doctor about kidney problems, and avoid potassium-based salt substitutes. Seek urgent care for swelling of the face, lips or throat. Store below 30°C. This product information is for general guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice.
