How Presart HZ 40 works
Presart HZ 40 is a combination of two medicines: Telmisartan and hydrochlorothiazide which lowers the blood pressure effectively. Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the hormone angiotensin, thereby relaxing the blood vessels. This allows the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that removes extra water and certain electrolytes from the body. Over time it also relaxes blood vessels and improves blood flow.

Administration

Adult Dose
Oral
Hypertension
Adult 1 tab (40-80 mg telmisartan/12.5-25 mg) once daily.
Max: Telmisartan 160 mg & hydrochlorothiazide 25 mg daily.
Hepatic Impairment

Renal Dose
Renal impairment
Dose adjustment not necessary

Contraindication
Severe hepatic impairment, biliary obstructive disorders. Pregnancy. Lactation.
Mode of Action
Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits the reabsorption of Na and chloride in the distal tubules causing increased excretion of Na and water K and hydrogen ions.
Telmisartan is a nonpeptide AT1 angiotensin II receptor antagonist. It exerts antihypertensive activity by preventing angiotensin II from binding to AT1 receptors thus inhibiting the vasoconstricting and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II.
Precaution
Hepatic insufficiency, biliary obstruction, renal impairment, renaly artery stenosis. Correct volume depletion before initiating treatment. Monitor serum potassium levels regularly, especially in elderly and renally-impaired patients.
