Hi.. Telma-AM is generally safe for long-term use and does not cause kidney failure in healthy individuals. Regular BP and kidney function tests (like creatinine, eGFR) are advised for monitoring. Weight management and healthy lifestyle play a key role in overall kidney and heart health. For personalised guidance, feel free to consult further.
