Pharmacology

Telmisartan squares the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting impacts of angiotensin II by specifically blocking the official of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor in numerous tissues, such as vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal organ. Its activity is hence autonomous of the pathways for angiotensin II amalgamation. Telmisartan has much more noteworthy partiality (>3,000 overlay) for the AT1 receptor than for the AT2 receptor. Since telmisartan does not hinder Expert (kininase II), it does not influence the reaction to bradykinin. Telmisartan does not tie to or square other hormone receptors or particle channels known to be vital in cardiovascular control.

Dosage & Administration

Dosage must be individualized. The usual starting dose of Telmisartan tablets is 40 mg once a day. Blood pressure response is dose-related over the range of 20 to 80 mg. Most of the antihypertensive effect is apparent within 2 weeks and maximal reduction is generally attained after 4 weeks. When additional blood pressure reduction beyond that achieved with 80 mg Telmisartan is required, may switch to the combination. No initial dosage adjustment is necessary for elderly patients or patients with renal impairment, including those on hemodialysis. Patients on dialysis may develop orthostatic hypotension; their blood pressure should be closely monitored. Telmisartan tablets may be administered with other antihypertensive agents. Telmisartan tablets may be administered with or without food. Initial therapy with Telmisartan is not recommended in patients ≥75 years old or with hepatic impairment.
