Treatment of essential hypertension and hypercholesterolemia (reduction of the risk of atherosclerosis)
This medication is administered to patients with essential hypertension whose blood pressure is not sufficiently controlled even with the combination of telmisartan and amlodipine, and it is prescribed only when rosuvastatin needs to be used together. The telmisartan/amlodipine combination helps effectively control blood pressure. Rosuvastatin is used as an adjunct to dietary treatment in patients with hypercholesterolemia and dyslipidemia, particularly contributing to slowing the progression of atherosclerosis and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. It is also helpful for patients with familial hypercholesterolemia and dysbetalipoproteinemia. This medication is used to manage both hypertension and cholesterol issues simultaneously to improve cardiovascular health.
This medication is taken once daily, 1 tablet, with or without food, and is recommended to take at the same time each day (e.g., in the morning). The dosage should be individualized for each patient based on the effect and tolerability of telmisartan/amlodipine combination and rosuvastatin. The dosage of the telmisartan/amlodipine combination can be 40/5 mg, 80/5 mg, or 40/10 mg depending on blood pressure control status.
