Cilnidipine (10mg) + Telmisartan (40mg) are generic tablets that combine two active ingredients to effectively manage hypertension in adults with persistent high blood pressure. Each medication plays a distinct role in lowering blood pressure.

Cilnidipine: This drug functions by blocking calcium channels in and around the heart. By inhibiting these channels, Cilnidipine reduces the force of contraction in the heart muscles, leading to lower blood pressure levels.

Telmisartan: This medication targets and blocks receptors that interact with angiotensin, a hormone that causes blood vessels to constrict, often due to adrenaline release. By preventing angiotensin from attaching to its receptors, Telmisartan promotes relaxation and dilation of blood vessels, which further decreases the pressure exerted on the vessel walls.

Together, Cilnidipine and Telmisartan provide a comprehensive approach to control high blood pressure in adults.
