Telicad 3D Tablet

Telicad 3D Tablet combines Telmisartan (40mg) and Chlorthalidone (12.5mg), a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), which helps relax blood vessels, while Chlorthalidone is a thiazide diuretic that helps reduce excess fluid in the body by increasing urine production. Together, they effectively control blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes, and help prevent kidney damage.
