Talam 5/80mg – 14 Tablets | Blood Pressure & Heart Health Support

Description:
Talam 5/80mg is a combination medication containing Amlodipine 5mg and Valsartan 80mg. This dual-action therapy is designed to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) and protect heart health. Amlodipine, a calcium channel blocker, relaxes blood vessels, improving blood flow and reducing blood pressure. Valsartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), prevents blood vessel constriction.
