Product Description
STARPRESS T XL 25mg is a fixed dose combination medication that contains Telmisartan (40.00mg/Tablet) and Metoprolol (25.00mg/Tablet). Telmisartan belongs to a class of medications called angiotensin II receptor blockers, which are used to treat high blood pressure. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that helps to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart. This combination medicine is prescribed to patients with hypertension to effectively control blood pressure and improve cardiovascular health. STARPRESS T XL 25mg works by blocking the effects of certain chemicals that tighten the blood vessels, allowing the blood to flow more smoothly and reducing the workload on the heart.
