Uses

Tazloc-AM Tablet is a combination of two medications, Telmisartan (40mg) and Amlodipine (5mg). These ingredients work together to help manage:

By controlling blood pressure and reducing the workload on your heart, Tazloc-AM Tablet helps to prevent heart-related complications and promote overall cardiovascular health.

Telmisartan, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, blocks the action of a naturally occurring chemical in your body that constricts blood vessels. This leads to:

• Lower blood pressure

Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, works by:

• Relaxing blood vessels
• Reducing the heart's workload
• Lowering blood pressure
