Frequently Asked Questions
METPURE TEL 20 TABLET: Frequently Asked Questions
METPURE TEL 20 TABLET is a combination medicine containing Telmisartan (20mg) and Metoprolol Succinate (25mg), primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Lowering high blood pressure helps to prevent future heart attacks, strokes, and kidney problems.
What is METPURE TEL 20 TABLET used for?
METPURE TEL 20 TABLET is used for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). It helps to relax blood vessels and reduce the heart rate, thereby lowering blood pressure and decreasing the risk of cardiovascular complications such as heart attacks and strokes.
How does METPURE TEL 20 TABLET work?
This medicine combines two active ingredients: Telmisartan and Metoprolol Succinate. Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that works by blocking the action of a hormone called angiotensin II, which normally constricts blood vessels. By blocking this, Telmisartan allows blood vessels to relax and widen, lowering blood pressure. Metoprolol Succinate is a beta-blocker that slows down your heart rate and reduces the force with which your heart muscle contracts, further helping to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart.
What is the usual dosage for METPURE TEL 20 TABLET?
METPURE TEL 20 TABLET is typically taken once daily, with or without food, at the same time each day to maintain consistent medicine levels in the blood. The exact dosage and duration of treatment will be determined by your doctor based on your specific medical condition and response to the medication.
What are the possible side effects of METPURE TEL 20 TABLET?
Common side effects can include headache, tiredness, dizziness, low blood pressure (hypotension), slow heart rate (bradycardia), stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, weakness, shortness of breath, cold extremities, itchy skin, rashes, and increased potassium levels in the blood. More serious but less common side effects can include angioedema (swelling of the face, throat, or tongue) and sepsis (blood infection).
Is METPURE TEL 20 TABLET safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
METPURE TEL 20 TABLET is generally not recommended during pregnancy, particularly in the second and third trimesters, as Telmisartan can cause severe birth defects or death to the unborn baby. If you become pregnant while taking this medicine, stop immediately and contact your doctor. During breastfeeding, Telmisartan is not recommended for use. While Metoprolol passes into breast milk in small amounts and is generally considered acceptable if the baby is healthy and monitored, the combination's overall safety during breastfeeding requires a doctor's consultation.
Can METPURE TEL 20 TABLET be taken with other medications?
METPURE TEL 20 TABLET can interact with various medications. It should be used with caution or avoided with other blood pressure-lowering drugs like ACE inhibitors and aliskiren, as this can increase the risk of hypotension, high potassium levels, and kidney problems. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can reduce its effectiveness and increase the risk of kidney problems. Potassium supplements and potassium-sparing diuretics should be avoided due to the risk of increased potassium levels. Inform your doctor about all prescription, over-the-counter, vitamin, nutritional, and herbal supplements you are taking.
What precautions should be taken while using METPURE TEL 20 TABLET?
It is crucial not to stop taking this medicine suddenly without consulting your doctor, as abrupt discontinuation can worsen your condition or lead to serious heart problems. Regular monitoring of your blood pressure, kidney function, and potassium levels is advised. This medication may cause dizziness or tiredness, so exercise caution when driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you. Avoid alcohol consumption as it can increase dizziness. Inform your doctor if you have pre-existing conditions such as kidney disease, liver disease, heart problems (other than hypertension), diabetes, asthma, or COPD.
What happens if a dose of METPURE TEL 20 TABLET is missed?
If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not take a double dose to make up for a missed one.
How should METPURE TEL 20 TABLET be stored?
Store METPURE TEL 20 TABLET in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight, and out of the sight and reach of children and pets. Tablets should generally not be removed from their blister pack until immediately before administration to protect them from light and moisture.
