Alero 120 Tablet is a medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). It is a combination of two drugs: lercanidipine and telmisartan.
How Alero 120 Tablet Works
- Lercanidipine is a calcium channel blocker that relaxes blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more easily.
- Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that blocks the effects of a hormone that narrows blood vessels.
By working together, these drugs help lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular problems.
