Usage

Micardis HCT (Telmisartan and Hydrochlorothiazide) is a prescription medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It's also indicated to lower the risk of stroke, heart attack, and cardiovascular-related death in patients aged 55 and older (source). Telmisartan belongs to the class of drugs called angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs). This medication works by relaxing blood vessels so blood can flow more easily. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic (water pill) that works by increasing urine production and reducing fluid retention. By lowering blood pressure, it can help to reduce the risk of severe health complications such as strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Telmisartan and Hydrochlorothiazide are used together when Micardis alone isn't enough to effectively or who need a combination of medications to control blood pressure.

It is crucial to take the medication exactly as your doctor prescribes or refer to the prescribing information. Please consult with your doctor for personalized advice.
