I've recently been prescribed Telmisartan/hctz 40-12.5mg Tabs to manage my high blood pressure. The combination of telmisartan and hydrochlorothiazide seems to be working well, but I've had a few questions and concerns about the potential side effects. I've read about some serious ones like allergic reactions, kidney problems, and even skin cancer risks, so I figure it's worth chatting about what we've experienced and what we need to watch out for. Has anyone else been dealing with this? I'm curious to hear about your journeys, tips, and any advice you might have.
