Your blood pressure (BP) may rise again if these medications are stopped abruptly, as hypertension often requires long-term treatment. You should consult your doctor to reassess your BP readings and determine whether you need to restart or adjust your medicines. Regular monitoring and lifestyle measures, such as following a balanced diet, exercising regularly, and managing stress, can also help maintain stable blood pressure control.

Diabetes and high blood pressure can reduce blood flow and nerve function, leading to erectile dysfunction. It is important to consult your doctor for proper evaluation and safe treatment options. Improving your blood sugar and blood pressure control is essential, and medications such as phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitors (e.g., sildenafil, tadalafil, or vardenafil) may help. Lifestyle changes, including a healthy diet and regular exercise, can also improve your condition.

The swelling (oedema) in your ankles and feet may occur as an uncommon side effect of Telmisartan, a component of CTD-T 12.5/80 Tablet. The weight gain may be due to fluid retention caused by the medication. You should consult your doctor promptly for proper management. They may adjust your dose, switch medications, or recommend lifestyle measures, such as elevating your legs and monitoring your fluid or salt intake.

Swelling in the ankles and feet (peripheral oedema), along with weight gain, is not a common side effect of CTD-T 12.5/80 Tablet, which contains Telmisartan (an ARB) and Chlorthalidone (a diuretic). These medications usually help prevent fluid retention rather than cause it. Such swelling is more commonly seen with calcium channel blockers. More likely causes include fluid retention due to vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), reduced kidney function, or inadequate blood pressure control. You should consult your doctor to rule out kidney or heart problems and adjust your treatment if needed.
