If you experience side effects, such as dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, etc., talk to your doctor.
What if Telmavas-AM doesn’t make me feel any better?
High blood pressure does not usually have any symptoms, so you may not feel ill if there is any change in the blood pressure. Therefore, this medicine may not make you feel “better”.

In addition to that, avoid getting dehydrated, drink enough fluids during exercise and in hot weather. The medicine may make you dizzy so avoid driving, using machinery or doing anything that needs concentration unless you know how this medicine affects you.
