Tasmi AM Tablet 5mg/80mg is a combination medicine containing Amlodipine and Telmisartan, commonly prescribed to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) in adults. This combination is particularly useful for patients whose blood pressure is not sufficiently controlled by a single medicine.

• Amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing blood pressure.

• Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels and protects the heart and kidneys.

Together, these medicines help maintain healthy blood pressure levels and reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney damage associated with hypertension.
