Hi, Lybrate user, thelmasartan 40 is used to combat hypertension and hydrochlothiazide is used to check oedema caused by various medical problems, splitting the tab in two parts might decrease the effect of medication inorder to check problem of yours. Tk, care.

You should not change bp tablet or reduce it without consulting your physician. It only 'controls' bp at certain level but does not cure permanently. Don't change bp dosage without consulting your physician.
