Abstract :

Always consult a healthcare provider for personalized medical advice and information.
Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) primarily used to treat hypertension and reduce cardiovascular risk. It works by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that constricts blood vessels, thereby promoting vasodilation and lowering blood pressure.
To achieve blood pressure control in the early morning, a long-acting antihypertensive agent is essential. Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker, as well as having a terminal elimination half-life of 24 h, has a large volume of distribution due to its high lipophilicity.
Key words- Telmisartan, ARB, Angiotensin, Hypertension, Lowering blood pressure
