About This Medicine

Product description & overview

Eritel LN 20mg/40mg Tablet is a combination antihypertensive medication containing Cilnidipine 20mg and Telmisartan 40mg. Cilnidipine is a calcium channel blocker that inhibits L-type and N-type calcium channels, leading to vasodilation and reduction of peripheral vascular resistance, thereby lowering blood pressure. Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) which selectively inhibits the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor, preventing vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion. The synergistic action of these two agents provides effective and sustained blood pressure control in patients with essential hypertension. Eritel LN is indicated for the management of hypertension, either as initial therapy or in patients inadequately controlled on monotherapy. The combination improves compliance by reducing pill burden and offers cardiovascular protection by addressing multiple pathways involved in blood pressure regulation. It is generally well tolerated; common adverse effects may include dizziness, headache, and mild peripheral edema. Caution is advised in patients with renal or hepatic impairment, and it is contraindicated in pregnancy and severe hypersensitivity to either component. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, renal function, and electrolytes is recommended during therapy to ensure safety and efficacy.

About Cilnidipine

Cilnidipine is a calcium channel blocker used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure). It works by relaxing blood vessels, thereby reducing the workload on the heart and improving blood flow. Cilnidipine is clinically significant in managing blood pressure and reducing the risk of cardiovascular events. In summary, cilnidipine is essential for controlling hypertension and enhancing heart health.

How It Works

Cilnidipine: Cilnidipine inhibits L-type and N-type calcium channels in vascular smooth muscle, leading to vasodilation and reduced blood pressure.

Telmisartan: Telmisartan selectively blocks angiotensin II receptors, leading to vasodilation and decreased blood pressure.
