Q1: Why combine these two medicines?
A1: Adds 8–12 mmHg extra systolic reduction vs either alone – gets >80% of tough patients to target.

Q2: Will I get swollen ankles like on amlodipine alone?
A2: Much less common – telmisartan counteracts fluid retention in most patients.

Q3: Is it better than losartan + amlodipine combos?
A3: Yes – telmisartan’s longer half-life gives smoother night-time & early-morning control.

Q4: Can diabetics safely take it?
A4: Preferred combo – protects kidneys and reduces proteinuria more than other combinations.

Q5: How soon will my BP drop?
A5: Significant improvement within 1–2 weeks; full effect by week 4–6.
