Pharmacological action
MIKARDIS - antihypertensive agent, angiotensin II receptor antagonist (type AT1). It has a very high affinity for this receptor subtype. Selectively and continuously binding to receptors, telmisartan displaces angiotensin II from its association with AT1 receptors. No affinity for other subtypes of AT receptors. The functional significance of other subtypes of receptors and the effect of increased (as a result of the appointment of telmisartan) levels of angiotensin II on them is not known. Telmisartan reduces plasma aldosterone levels, does not inhibit plasma renin, does not block ion channels, does not inhibit ACE (kinase II), which also destroys bradykinin. Therefore, the manifestation of side effects associated with bradykinin is not observed.
Contraindications
Obstruction of the biliary tract, severe hepatic and renal impairment, pregnancy, lactation (breastfeeding), hypersensitivity to telmisartan.
Specific guidance
Impact on the ability to drive a car and machinery
No specific studies have been conducted on the effect of the drug on a ability to drive a car and machinery. However, when driving a car and machinery, one should remember the possibility of developing dizziness and drowsiness with the use of drugs used to treat arterial hypertension.

Drug interaction
When used with antihypertensive drugs, an increase in antihypertensive effect is possible.
With simultaneous use with potassium-sparing diuretics, heparin, dietary supplements, salt substitutes containing potassium, the development of hyperkalemia is possible.
With simultaneous use with lithium preparations, an increase in the concentration of lithium in blood plasma is possible.
With simultaneous use, an increase in the concentration of digoxin in blood plasma is possible.
Overdose
No cases of overdose in humans have been identified.
Symptoms: marked decrease in blood pressure.
Treatment: in the event of a marked decrease in blood pressure, symptomatic therapy should be given. Hemodialysis is not effective.
