Bronchial Issues And Allergies. Can Telmisartan Be Harmful?
I am trying to learn if the talc used in Telmisartan (80mg) could cause any problems for people with bronchial issues, sensativities, allergies?
I am also interested where the drug is manufactured as there has been a recall on this drug.
The drug I take is made by TEVA, I am curious where it is made ( if it is outsourced) and the source of the talc.
Thank you...

Hello
welcome to health care magic
thanks for your query
Telmisartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker,,used to control blood pressure..
It is used in hypertension patients..
Side effects are usually mild..
It can be used safely in asthma patients..
In some people the drug or its components are sensitive that means when they take it causes allergic reaction to our body..
Sensitivity to components of the drug is very rare..
You can safely use the drug no problem..
Hope you understand my answer
Thank you
