Tablet
Telminus-Trio is a combination of three drugs with antihypertensive properties: a dihydropyridine calcium antagonist (calcium ion antagonist or slow-channel blocker) amlodipine besylate, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), telmisartan and diuretics Chlorthalidone.
Fixed dose combination of telmisartan and amlodipine tablets have been shown to be effective in lowering blood pressure.
Both telmisartan and amlodipine lower blood pressure by reducing peripheral resistance but through complementary mechanisms.
Chlorthalidone directly inhibits sodium and chloride reabsorption on the luminal membrane of the early segment in the distal convoluted tubule (DCT) in the kidney. This leads to an increase in sodium, chloride, bicarbonate, and potassium secretion resulting in the excretion of water.
A blister strip of 10 tablets.
