Misar H Tablet 40mg/12.5mg is a combination antihypertensive medicine containing Telmisartan 40mg and Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg. It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) when a single blood pressure medicine is not providing adequate control.

How Misar H Tablet Works

Telmisartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that causes blood vessels to tighten. This helps blood vessels relax, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure.

Hydrochlorothiazide works as a diuretic by increasing urine production, helping the body remove excess salt and water, which contributes to lowering blood pressure.
