Twynsta 80/10mg – Telmisartan & Amlodipine Tablets for Blood Pressure Control (28 Tablets)
**Twynsta 80/10mg** is a fixed-dose combination antihypertensive medication that combines **Telmisartan (80mg)**, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), with **Amlodipine (10mg)**, a calcium channel blocker. This once-daily tablet is used to effectively **lower high blood pressure**, especially in patients who require dual therapy for adequate control. Reducing blood pressure helps decrease the risk of **stroke**, **heart attack**, and **kidney problems**.
Active Ingredients
- Telmisartan – 80mg
- Amlodipine – 10mg
How It Works
Telmisartan relaxes blood vessels by blocking the angiotensin II receptor, preventing vasoconstriction. Amlodipine complements this effect by relaxing the muscles in the vessel walls through calcium channel inhibition. Together, they **widen the arteries**, improve circulation, and lower blood pressure more effectively than either drug alone.
