TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S

How TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S Works

• TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET is a combination medication containing Telmisartan and Bisoprolol, designed to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) effectively. Each component contributes uniquely to lowering blood pressure, providing a synergistic effect that enhances overall cardiovascular health.
• Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), works by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to its receptors, primarily the AT1 receptors, found in various tissues such as blood vessels and the adrenal glands. Angiotensin II is a potent vasoconstrictor, meaning it narrows blood vessels, increasing blood pressure. It also stimulates the release of aldosterone, a hormone that causes the kidneys to retain sodium and water, further elevating blood pressure. By blocking angiotensin II's actions, Telmisartan allows blood vessels to relax and widens, reducing resistance and lowering blood pressure. Additionally, it reduces the levels of aldosterone, promoting sodium and water excretion, which further aids in blood pressure reduction. This mechanism helps in protecting the kidneys and heart from damage caused by prolonged hypertension.
• Bisoprolol, a beta-blocker, specifically targets beta-1 adrenergic receptors primarily located in the heart. When Bisoprolol binds to these receptors, it blocks the effects of adrenaline and noradrenaline, which are hormones that increase heart rate and the force of heart contractions. By blocking these effects, Bisoprolol slows down the heart rate and reduces the heart's workload. It also decreases the amount of blood the heart needs to pump with each beat, lowering the overall cardiac output and blood pressure. Moreover, Bisoprolol helps in relaxing the blood vessels, contributing further to the reduction in blood pressure. This action of Bisoprolol is particularly beneficial in patients with conditions like angina (chest pain) and heart failure, as it reduces the heart's oxygen demand and improves its efficiency.
• The combination of Telmisartan and Bisoprolol in TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET offers a comprehensive approach to managing hypertension. While Telmisartan directly addresses the hormonal influences on blood pressure by blocking angiotensin II, Bisoprolol counteracts the effects of the sympathetic nervous system on the heart and blood vessels. This dual action ensures a more effective and sustained reduction in blood pressure compared to using either medication alone. Regular use of TEMSAN BS, as prescribed by your doctor, helps in controlling blood pressure, reducing the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage. It’s essential to adhere to the prescribed dosage and lifestyle modifications like diet and exercise for optimal results.

Common side effects of TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET may include: Dizziness, headache, fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, abdominal pain, upper respiratory tract infection, cough, sinusitis, back pain, muscle cramps, hyperuricemia (increased uric acid in the blood), and elevated blood lipids. Less common but potentially serious side effects include: Hypotension (low blood pressure), angioedema (swelling of the face, lips, tongue, or throat), renal impairment, and allergic reactions. Rare side effects may include: Liver dysfunction and electrolyte imbalances.

• If you miss a dose of TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to make up for the missed one.

• Keep TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TAB 1X10 away from the reach of children and pets.
• Store TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TAB 1X10 at room temperature.

• Take TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not change the dosage or stop taking the medication without consulting them, even if you feel better.
• TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S is typically taken once daily, with or without food. Try to take it at the same time each day to maintain a consistent level of medication in your body. Consistency is key for optimal blood pressure control.
• While taking TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S, monitor your blood pressure regularly as directed by your healthcare provider. Keep a log of your readings and share it with your doctor during appointments. This helps assess the effectiveness of the medication.
• Inform your doctor about all other medications, supplements, and herbal products you are taking before starting TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S. Certain medications can interact with Temsartan and Bisoprolol, affecting their efficacy or increasing the risk of side effects. Common culprits include NSAIDs (like ibuprofen), certain antidepressants, and potassium supplements.
• Lifestyle modifications are crucial for managing high blood pressure effectively. While taking TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S, adopt a healthy lifestyle, including a balanced diet low in sodium and saturated fats, regular exercise (at least 30 minutes most days of the week), maintaining a healthy weight, limiting alcohol consumption, and quitting smoking. These changes complement the medication and improve overall cardiovascular health.

• TEMSAN BS 2.5/40MG TABLET 10'S can be taken with or without food. However, it is important to take it consistently, either always with food or always without food, to maintain consistent absorption of the medication.
• Avoid consuming excessive amounts of potassium-rich foods (e.g., bananas, spinach) unless directed otherwise by your doctor, as Temsartan contains a diuretic which may lead to increased potassium levels.
