VRITEL CL 80 TABLET
Telmisartan (80 mg) + Cilnidipine (10 mg) is a dual-mechanism antihypertensive combination used for effective and sustained control of high blood pressure. Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), relaxes blood vessels by blocking angiotensin-mediated vasoconstriction, thereby reducing systemic vascular resistance. Cilnidipine, a dual L-type and N-type calcium channel blocker, decreases peripheral vascular resistance and suppresses sympathetic overactivity. Together, they provide 24-hour blood pressure control, reduce cardiovascular workload, minimize reflex tachycardia, and offer renal protection—especially beneficial in hypertensive patients with diabetes or kidney involvement. ❤️🩺
