Ubitel H 40mg/12.5mg Tablet

Ubitel H 40mg/12.5mg Tablet is a prescription medication that combines two active ingredients: Telmisartan (40mg) and Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg). It is primarily used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension), helping reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and kidney problems. Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), while Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic. Together, they work to lower blood pressure effectively by relaxing blood vessels and eliminating excess fluid and salt from the body, ensuring better heart and kidney health.
