Telmikind-20 Tablet contains telmisartan (20 mg), which works on your body through the following mechanisms:

• Blocks Angiotensin II Receptors: Telmisartan specifically blocks angiotensin II from binding to its receptors found in smooth muscles and adrenal glands. Angiotensin II is a substance in your body that causes your blood vessels to narrow and release a hormone known as aldosterone.

• Reduces Blood Pressure: By blocking angiotensin II, telmisartan prevents the narrowing of your blood vessels, thereby reducing peripheral resistance and lowering your blood pressure.

• Decreases Aldosterone Secretion: Telmisartan's action on the AT1 receptors also results in less secretion of aldosterone, a hormone that can increase blood pressure. By reducing aldosterone secretion, telmisartan further contributes towards lowering blood pressure.
