INTRODUCTION
In Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure) Hypertension or an increase in blood pressure occurs when the blood vessels that supply blood to your heart become narrow. As a result of this, blood cannot flow smoothly to the heart, heart rate increases and it fails to pump blood effectively to other parts of the body. This puts a strain on the heart that can cause a chest pain or even a heart attack. Telispa MT 25 Tablet reduces pressure in the blood vessels. It relaxes the blood vessels so that blood can flow more easily to your heart. This reduces strain on the heart and slows down heart rate. This further reduces the risk of having a stroke, a heart attack, or kidney problems in the future. You do not usually feel any direct benefit from taking this medicine, but it works in the long term to keep you well. You should take it regularly as prescribed for this medicine to be most effective, even if you feel better.
