How Telma ACT Tablet works

Telma ACT 40mg/5mg/12.5mg Tablet is a combination of three medicines: Telmisartan, Amlodipine, and Chlorthalidone. Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB), and Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker (CCB). They work by widening and relaxing the blood vessels, thereby lowering blood pressure. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that removes extra water and certain electrolytes from the body through urine. Over time it also works by relaxing blood vessels and improving blood flow.
