Metoprolol Succinate, Cilnidipine & Telmisartan Tablets

Metoprolol Succinate, Cilnidipine & Telmisartan Tablets are available with the branding “TELMITIC-CM 25” and are a class of anti-hypertensive drugs that are prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). Cilnidipine+metoprolol Succinate+telmisartan lowers blood pressure and, in turn, decreases the risk of heart issues like heart attack and stroke. High blood pressure is a condition where the blood puts extra pressure on the blood vessel walls. Symptoms are headache, dizziness, nosebleeds, visual disturbances, chest pain, weakness, and dyspnea (shortness of breath). But usually, the signs and symptoms of hypertension are none. 

Metoprolol Succinate, Cilnidipine & Telmisartan Tablets consist of the combination of three medications: Cilnidipine, Telmisartan, and Metoprolol succinate. Cilnidipine inhibits the calcium channels of the blood vessels and the contraction of the blood vessels, which aids in the smooth flow of the blood. Telmisartan functions by inhibiting the angiotensin II receptor, resulting in relaxation of blood vessels and a decrease in blood pressure. Metoprolol succinate reduces the heart rate and facilitates the pumping of blood into the body. Both of this medication treats high blood pressure.

Uses

• Controls Hypertension: It reduces high blood pressure by dilating blood vessels and reducing the rate of heart, so the heart pumps blood with less effort.
• Decreases Cardiovascular Complications: By properly controlling blood pressure and decreasing the workload of the heart, it prevents stroke and heart attack.

Medical Benefits

• Cilnidipine is a calcium channel blocker that inhibits the calcium channels of the blood vessels and prevents the contraction of blood vessels, thus facilitating the smooth flow of blood.
• Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker that inhibits the action of the angiotensin II receptor, thus relaxing the blood vessels and reducing the blood pressure.
• Metoprolol succinate is a beta-blocker that decreases the heart rate and facilitates the heart’s ability to pump blood into the body.
• It decreases the blood pressure, thus lessening the risk of heart issues like heart attack and stroke.
