Atorvastatin + Telmisartan

Uses

Telmisartan and Atorvastatin are used in the treatment of high blood pressure and high cholesterol.

How it Works

How Telmisartan and Atorvastatin Work Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It functions by blocking the hormone angiotensin, which relaxes blood vessels and lowers blood pressure. Atorvastatin is a lipid-lowering medication (statin). It works by inhibiting an enzyme (HMG-CoA reductase) that is necessary for the body to produce cholesterol. This action lowers "bad" cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides while raising "good" cholesterol (HDL).

Side Effects

Common side effects of Telmisartan and Atorvastatin include nausea, stomach pain, constipation, headache, dizziness, muscle pain, weakness, increased glucose levels in the blood, increased potassium levels in the blood, and elevated liver enzymes.
