Uses of Angitel H

Angitel H belongs to the group of cardiovascular drugs, made in the form of pellets, packing box of 3 blisters x 10 tablets. Angitel H is useful in the treatment of essential hypertension in adults but is not initially indicated for the treatment of this condition. To use Ceftarol safely and effectively, you should consult a pharmacist or specialist.

Ingredients in Angitel H include:
Telmisartan 40mg; Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg. Telmisartan:
Telmisartan antagonizes angiotensin II with a strong affinity for the AT1 receptor binding site - responsible for all known actions of angiotensin II and does not have any agonist activity of telmisartan at AT1 receptor. This bond is very strong and lasting. Telmisartan has no affinity for other receptors, and the role and consequences of excessive stimulation of these receptors are unknown when angiotensin II levels are increased by telmisartan. Telmisartan reduces the amount of aldosterone in the blood. Telmisartan does not inhibit plasma renin, does not block ion channels and does not inhibit angiotensin converting enzyme (kinase II). Therefore, telmisartan is free of the side effects caused by bradykinin. With a dose of 80mg, Telmisartan will almost completely inhibit the antihypertensive effect of Angiotensin II. This inhibitory effect persists for 24 hours and is effective up to the 48th hour. After the first dose of the active ingredient Telmisartan, the antihypertensive effect is gradual and pronounced over 3 hours. The antihypertensive effect will reach its maximum after 4 weeks of treatment and be maintained during long-term treatment. Hydrochlorothiazide:
This is a Thiazide diuretic, which increases the diuresis of sodium chloride and accompanying water. The excretion of other electrolytes is also increased, while calcium is decreased. Hydrochlorothiazide also reduces the activity of carbonic anhydrase, so it increases bicarbonate excretion and does not significantly change urine pH. Hydrochlorothiazide has antihypertensive effect. During drug administration, the antihypertensive effect depends on the decrease in peripheral resistance, through the gradual adaptation of blood vessels to the decrease in sodium ion concentration. Therefore, the antihypertensive effect of Hydrochlorothiazide will occur slowly after 1-2 weeks, while the diuretic effect occurs rapidly after a few hours.

Angitel H is a prescription medicine that is used to treat the following conditions:
Angitel H is used to treat essential hypertension in adults. However, Angitel H is not initially indicated for the treatment of hypertension. When necessary, Angitel H can be combined with another antihypertensive drug.

Reference dose of Angitel H:
Dosage in adults:
Take 1 Angitel H tablet per day. If necessary, the dose of Angitel H can be increased to 160 mg Telmisartan and 25 mg Hydrochlorothiazide (suitable combination or alone). Before increasing the dose of Angitel H, it should be noted that the maximum antihypertensive effect is usually achieved after 4 to 8 weeks of treatment.
Dosage for patients with renal impairment:
Angitel H is not indicated in patients with severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance ≤ 30ml/min). Experience with Angitel H is still limited in patients with moderate to mild renal impairment, but no side effects have been shown, so no dose adjustment is required. During the use of Angitel H, the patient should be periodically monitored for renal function. Dosage for patients with hepatic impairment:
In patients with mild or moderate hepatic impairment, the dose of Angitel H should not exceed 1⁄2 tablets (Telmisartan 40mg/ Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg) once daily. Angitel H is contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic impairment. Elderly patients:
No dose adjustment of Angitel H is required. Children under 18 years of age:
Safety and efficacy of Angitel H have not been established in this population. How to take Angitel H:
Take Angitel H 1 time per day. Taking Angitel H is not dependent on meals because food only slightly reduces the bioavailability of the drug. Note: The above dose of Angitel H is for reference only. The specific dose of Angitel H depends on the condition and the progression of the disease. To get the right dose of Angitel H, patients should consult their doctor or healthcare professional.

Symptoms of Angitel H overdose:
Slow or fast heart rate; Dizziness, lightheadedness; Excessive lowering of blood pressure; Water and electrolyte disturbances; Nausea and drowsiness. Treatment of overdose:
There is currently no specific information on the treatment of Angitel H overdose. Angitel H overdose treatment is symptomatic and supportive. Angitel H should be stopped immediately and closely monitored. sick. Management measures include induction of vomiting or gastric lavage, use of activated charcoal, rehydration, electrolyte balance, management of hepatic coma, and reduction of blood pressure.

Do not use Angitel H in the following cases:
Patients with hypersensitivity to Telmisartan, Thiazide and Sulphonamide derivatives or to any component of Angitel H; Pregnant women; Women who are breastfeeding; Patients with anuria. Severe renal failure, serum creatinine 250 micromol/liter or blood potassium 5mmol/liter, Clcr ≤ 30ml/min. Severe liver failure and biliary obstruction. Hypokalemia; Hypercalcemia ; Angitel H should not be co-administered with Aliskiren in patients with diabetes mellitus or renal failure (GFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m2). Contraindications are absolute. This means that Angitel H can not be used for any reason in cases of contraindications. Any decision about the dosage and how to take Angitel H should be made according to the doctor's prescription.

Possible interactions when using Angitel H with the following drugs:

Increased serum lithium concentration when co-administered with Angitel H. Angitel H in combination with NSAIDs may cause disturbances or impairment of renal function. Concomitant administration of Digoxin with Angitel H increases serum concentrations of Digoxin.
