Clinical trials have already convincingly shown that sustained management of hypertension significantly reduces the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack, heart failure, stroke and heart-related deaths. 


Among the most effective medicines available to physicians is telmisartan, a medicine belonging to the angiotensin II receptor blocker class of drugs.
