About this product
Overview
Misar 80mg Tablet contains the active ingredient Telmisartan, which belongs to a class of medications known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). It is commonly prescribed to manage hypertension (high blood pressure) and to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack and stroke. Telmisartan works by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a substance in the body that causes blood vessels to narrow, thereby helping to relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure.
