Telmikind-AM Tablet contains two active ingredients:

Telmisartan (40 mg): This ingredient belongs to a class of medicines known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). It works by blocking the binding of a hormone called angiotensin II to specific receptors in various tissues of your body. Blocking this hormone has two primary effects: it dilates the blood vessels and decreases the production of aldosterone, a hormone that causes salt and water retention in your body.
Amlodipine (5 mg): Classified as a calcium channel blocker, amlodipine works by inhibiting the influx of calcium ions into vascular smooth muscle cells in your body, reducing peripheral vascular resistance. By doing so, it helps relax and widen your blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more freely.
