Product Info
Losartan is a medication used either alone or in conjunction with other drugs to address high blood pressure. It is also employed to lower the risk of stroke in individuals who have high blood pressure and a heart ailment referred to as left ventricular hypertrophy, which is characterized by the enlargement of the walls of the left side of the heart. It is worth noting that Losartan may not reduce the risk of stroke in African Americans who have these medical conditions. Moreover, the medication is administered to manage kidney disease in individuals who have type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure. Losartan belongs to a class of medications called angiotensin II receptor antagonists, which work by obstructing the action of certain natural substances that constrict the blood vessels, resulting in a more fluid blood flow and efficient heart pumping.
