FAQs about Micardis
What should I do if I miss a dose?
If you miss a dose of Micardis, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not take two doses at the same time to make up for a missed dose.
Can I stop taking Micardis suddenly?
The label advises against abrupt discontinuation of Micardis, as it may lead to a return of hypertension. It is important to consult your prescriber before stopping the medication to discuss the best approach for discontinuation.
Can I take Micardis while pregnant or breastfeeding?
The use of Micardis during pregnancy is not recommended, particularly in the second and third trimesters, due to potential harm to the fetus. It is also advised to avoid Micardis while breastfeeding, as it is not known if telmisartan is excreted in human milk.
How should I store Micardis?
Micardis should be stored at room temperature, away from moisture and heat. Keep the medication in its original container and out of reach of children.
