telmisartan + indapamide

Telmisartan + indapamide is a fixed-dose combination of two antihypertensive agents used primarily for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure). Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that works by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to its type 1 receptor in vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland, resulting in vasodilation and reduced blood pressure. Indapamide is a thiazide-like diuretic that acts at the distal tubule in the kidney to promote excretion of sodium and water, while also exerting direct vasodilatory effects on blood vessels. The combination effectively lowers blood pressure, reduces cardiovascular risk, and may decrease the risk of stroke, heart attack, and edema. This therapy is indicated as first-line or adjunctive treatment for adults with hypertension[1][4][8].
