Telmisartan is indicated for the treatment of hypertension & heart failure. It may be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents.
Mode of Action:
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor (Type AT1) Blocker. Telmisartan blocks the vasoconstrictor & aldosterone secreting effect of angiotensin II in many tissues, such as vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland. It is also a selective modulator of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-Gamma). This is a central regulator of insulin & glucose metabolism, Thus dual mode of action provide protective effects against vascular & renal damage caused by diabetes & CVD.
