About Biotelm-40 Tablet 15's
Biotelm-40 Tablet 15's is used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) in adults and to reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke in adults. Essential hypertension is a medical condition in which the blood pressure is elevated persistently in the arteries without any known cause. On the other hand, heart attack or stroke occurs due to blocked blood flow to the heart or brain, respectively.
Biotelm-40 Tablet 15's works by blocking the action of a hormone called angiotensin II in the body. This hormone causes blood vessels to narrow, leading to high blood pressure. By blocking this action, Biotelm-40 Tablet 15's widens and relaxes blood vessels, lowering high blood pressure.
You can take Biotelm-40 Tablet 15's irrespective of food and swallow it whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break it.
