Description
Metosartan CH 25 Tablet ER is a prescription medicine used for the management of high blood pressure (hypertension). It contains three active ingredients:
-
Telmisartan (40mg): An angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels for easier blood flow.
-
Metoprolol Succinate (25mg): A beta-blocker that lowers heart rate and reduces strain on the heart.
-
Chlorthalidone (12.5mg): A diuretic (water pill) that helps the body get rid of excess salt and water, lowering blood pressure further.
This triple combination effectively controls blood pressure, reduces workload on the heart, and lowers the risk of complications such as heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage.
