Mechanism of Action

Telmisartan and Amlodipine Tablets IP work through two complementary mechanisms.

Telmisartan

Telmisartan belongs to the Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB) class. It blocks angiotensin-II receptors, preventing blood vessel narrowing and reducing blood pressure.

Amlodipine

Amlodipine is a Calcium Channel Blocker (CCB). It relaxes blood vessels by reducing calcium entry into vascular smooth muscle, allowing blood to flow more easily.

Together, this combination provides sustained blood pressure reduction and decreases cardiovascular workload.
