ACMETEL MT 25 TABLET is a medication used to manage
hypertension
(high blood pressure). By lowering blood pressure, it reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes. It contains a combination of two medicines, metoprolol and telmisartan which works together effectively to improve heart functions.
It is recommended to take ACMETEL MT 25 TABLET with food at the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels. Continue taking it as prescribed by your doctor, even if you feel fine, since high blood pressure often presents no symptoms. Stopping the medication abruptly can worsen your condition. Along with the medicine, staying active, maintaining a healthy diet, and managing your weight can further help control blood pressure. Always follow your doctor’s guidance while on this therapy.
Common side effects include headache, weakness, dizziness, low blood pressure, increased potassium levels, orthostatic hypotension (which may lead to fainting), breathlessness, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and fatigue. It is advised to avoid potassium-rich foods or supplements while taking this medicine. Since it can cause dizziness, avoid driving or get up slowly from a seated position. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, blood sugar, kidney function, urea, and electrolyte levels may be required during treatment.
Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have any kidney or liver issues. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before use. Also, let your doctor know about any other medications you are taking, particularly those for blood pressure or heart conditions.
