Hi
thanks for the query.
Telmisartan(which is the content in a tablet of telminorm) usually does not cause chronic cough and the described incidence is less than 1%.
So your physician needs to rule out other common causes.
Also if teminorm is the cause then the cough should disappear on stopping the pill.
Hope this helps
Good luck.
I find this answer helpful
