Losartan 50 Mg

Losartan Tablet is a widely prescribed cardiovascular medicine used for the management of hypertension (high blood pressure), heart failure, and kidney protection in patients with Type 2 diabetes and proteinuria. It belongs to the angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) class of medications, which work by blocking the action of angiotensin II—a substance in the body that causes blood vessels to tighten. By relaxing and widening blood vessels, Losartan lowers blood pressure, improves blood flow, and reduces the workload on the heart. This helps prevent serious complications such as stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage. In patients with diabetic nephropathy, Losartan helps slow the progression of kidney disease. Losartan tablets are available in different strengths and are typically taken once daily, with or without food, as directed by a healthcare professional. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and kidney function is recommended during treatment.
