HOW CETANIL T TABLET WORKS
CETANIL T TABLET helps to reduce high blood pressure, where cilnidipine blocks the incoming calcium and suppresses the contraction of blood vessels, thereby reduces the blood pressure. Telmisartan works by relaxing the blood vessels by managing the binding of certain substance (angiotensin-II) resulting in low blood pressure.
