Add-On Therapy: Telmisartan & Amlodipine may be administered in patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled with amlodipine or telmisartan alone. Patients treated with amlodipine 10 mg who experience any dose-limiting adverse reactions eg, oedema, may be switched to Telmisartan & Amlodipine 40/5 mg once daily, reducing the dose of amlodipine without reducing the overall ected antihypertensive response.Individual dose titration with the components (ie, am odipine and telmisaitan) is recommended before changing to the fixed-dose combination. When clinically appropriate, direct change from monotherapy to the fixed-dose combination may be considered.
Initial Therapy: A patient may be initiated on Telmisartan & Amlodipine if it is unlikely that control of blood pressure would be achieved with a single agent.
