TELMA-LN 80 contains telmisartan and lercanidipine. Telmisartan works by blocking the effects of angiotensin II, leading to blood vessel relaxation and reduced blood pressure. Lercanidipine inhibits calcium entry into the smooth muscle of blood vessels, leading to their dilation and further lowering of blood pressure. This combination provides a synergistic effect, enhancing blood pressure control and reducing the risk of heart-related conditions.
