How Telma CT Forte 40 Tablet works
Telma CT Forte 40 Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Telmisartan and chlorthalidone which lower blood pressure effectively. Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the hormone angiotensin thereby relaxing blood vessels. This allows the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. Chlorthalidone is a diuretic that removes extra water and certain electrolytes from the body. Over time it also relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow.

Side Effects:

Common Dizziness, Altered blood lipids.
