What side effects could I experience from taking Telma 40 mg instead of omeprazole?

Asked by Female, 37 · 18 days ago

Omeprazole treats stomach acid, while telmisartan is for high blood pressure. If you take telmisartan instead of omeprazole, your acid reflux will not be treated. Additionally, taking a blood pressure medication you may not need can cause side effects like dizziness, lightheadedness, fatigue, or a sudden drop in blood pressure. Please do not swap these medications. I highly recommend speaking with your doctor or pharmacist right away to ensure you are taking the correct prescription safely.
