Telvas Beta 25 Tablet ER

Introduction

Telvas Beta 25 Tablet ER is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and other heart-related conditions. It contains telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), and atenolol, a beta-blocker. This combination helps lower blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart attacks, and prevent stroke. The extended-release (ER) formulation ensures a gradual and consistent release of the medication throughout the day.

Uses of Telvas Beta 25 Tablet ER

• Management of high blood pressure (hypertension)
• Reduces the risk of heart attacks, stroke, and kidney problems
• Treatment of heart failure and prevention of complications in heart-related conditions

How it Works

Telvas Beta 25 Tablet ER combines telmisartan and atenolol to work in two different ways. Telmisartan blocks the effects of a hormone called angiotensin II, which helps relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure. Atenolol, a beta-blocker, works by slowing the heart rate and reducing the workload on the heart, further helping to control blood pressure and reduce strain on the heart.
