Telma-am combines telmisartan and amlodipine to offer a robust approach to managing high blood pressure. telmisartan works by blocking angiotensin ii receptors, which relaxes blood vessels and lowers blood pressure. amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, prevents calcium from entering vascular smooth muscle, resulting in vasodilation and further reduction in blood pressure. this combination provides enhanced blood pressure control and reduces cardiovascular risk.
