Overview Telestra TH 40mg/12.5mg Tablet

CardioDuo 40mg/12.5mg tablets combine two blood pressure-regulating agents, offering effective control when single medications prove insufficient. This dual-action approach reduces the risk of future heart attacks and strokes. CardioDuo may be taken with or without food, at the same time daily, as prescribed by your physician. Continue taking this medication as directed; discontinuation may increase cardiovascular risks. The formulation includes a diuretic, increasing urination; therefore, avoid dosing within four hours of bedtime. Consistent use is crucial, even if you feel well, as high blood pressure is often asymptomatic. Dizziness is a common side effect; others include fatigue, nausea, breathlessness, and palpitations. Increased urination is expected and therapeutic. While rare, other side effects are possible. Review the patient information leaflet and consult your doctor if side effects persist or are concerning; dosage adjustment or alternative therapies may be considered. Avoid potassium supplements or salt substitutes unless medically advised. This medication is generally unsuitable during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Consult your doctor before use if you have kidney or liver impairment, heart conditions, or diabetes. Alcohol consumption may intensify blood pressure reduction and side effects.
