To @Monika:
Polsart does not cause cough very often (in no more than 1 in 100 patients).
Prenesse4mg due to severe cough was replaced with polsart 40mg can it also cause coughing

Polsart (telmisartan) and Prenessa (perindopril) are drugs used to treat hypertension, but they differ in their mechanism of action and potency.
Polsart (telmisartan): It is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARA), which means that it blocks the action of a hormone that causes blood vessels to constrict, which helps lower blood pressure.

Prenessa (perindopril): It belongs to a group of ACE inhibitors that inhibit the enzyme responsible for converting angiotensin I into angiotensin II, which also leads to a decrease in blood pressure.

These are different drugs, so it is not possible to say definitively which one is "stronger". Dosage is based on individual patient needs, response to treatment and specific medical indications.
In clinical practice, it can be said that the effects of Polsart's action can be comparable to those of Prenessa, but they require individual assessment by a doctor.
If you have any further doubts, it is worth consulting your attending physician. If you are unable to consult your doctor, you can use the teleconsultation here:
