    Frequently asked Questions about Telsar

    Question about 5 years ago

    What is Telsar?

    Dr. Kishan Barnwal MBBS , General Physician

    Telsar is the brand name for telmisartan. It belongs to a group of medications known as angiotensin II receptor blockers. It is available in the form of tablets. Telsar is used to treat hypertension. It is also used to decrease cardiovascular risk in patients who cannot take ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) inhibitors.

    Question about 5 years ago

    How does Telsar work

    Dr. Gaurav MBBS , General Physician

    Telsar contains telmisartan which is an antihypertensive drug that works by preventing a chemical (angiotensin II) to bind with a receptor. This causes relaxation of blood vessels, it also prevents the synthesis and release of aldosterone (a hormone whose hyperactivity results in high blood pressure). In this way Telsar decreases the blood pressure.
