General warnings

Aortic stenosis

Telplus Tablet should be used with caution if you have aortic stenosis (narrowing or blockage of the aortic valve that regulates blood flow in the chambers of the heart). This medicine slows down the blood flow which may increase the risk of very low blood pressure. It is recommended that you monitor your blood pressure regularly while you take this medicine.

Use in Children

Telplus Tablet is not recommended for use in children below 18 years since the safety and efficacy of use are not clinically established.

Renal artery stenosis

Use Telplus Tablet with caution if you have renal artery stenosis (narrowing or blockage of blood vessels that carry blood to the kidneys) as it may cause uncontrolled high blood pressure, altered kidney function, water retention, and swelling in the body (majorly in limbs). Your kidney function and clinical condition will be closely monitored by your doctor while you are taking this medicine.

Drug withdrawal

Avoid abrupt discontinuation of Telplus Tablet as it may worsen the condition such as angina (chest pain). Your doctor may gradually reduce the dose based on your condition to avoid undesirable effects.

Hyperkalaemia

Use of Telplus Tablet may lead to hyperkalaemia (increase the potassium levels in your blood). This may cause side effects such as cardiac rhythm irregularities. Avoid potassium-rich foods (potatoes, bananas) and other medicines that may increase potassium levels (ACE inhibitors and potassium supplements) during treatment with this medicine.

Driving or operating Machines

Use of Telplus Tablet may cause symptoms such as drowsiness and/or dizziness. Avoid performing activities that requires high mental alertness like driving vehicles or operating heavy machines during treatment with this medicine.
