About JOLTAN PLUS 80/12.5

JOLTAN PLUS 80/12.5 is a combination medication formulated to address hypertension, particularly when monotherapy isn't sufficient. This dual-action approach ensures a more comprehensive management of high blood pressure, thereby reducing the risks associated with persistent hypertension such as strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.

Active Ingredients

• Ingredient 1 (e.g., Telmisartan): An angiotensin II receptor antagonist, which functions by blocking the action of certain chemicals that tighten the blood vessels, leading to smoother and more efficient blood flow.
• Ingredient 2 (e.g., Hydrochlorothiazide): A diuretic or "water pill" that helps prevent your body from absorbing too much salt, which can cause fluid retention. This aids in reducing the overall volume of blood, reducing the strain and pressure on arterial walls.

Health Benefits

• Effective Blood Pressure Control: Dual ingredients offer a synergistic effect in controlling blood pressure.
• Reduced Risk: By maintaining optimal blood pressure levels, the risks of severe health complications like heart attacks, strokes, and kidney diseases are substantially reduced.
• Fluid Balance: Helps in maintaining a healthy fluid balance in the body, preventing swelling and related issues.
