About HYZAAR

HYZAAR is a prescription medication containing a combination of losartan potassium and hydrochlorothiazide. It is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and children aged 6 years and older.

Key Benefits & Uses

• Treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and children aged 6 years and older.
• Reduction of the risk of stroke and heart attack in patients with high blood pressure.
• Management of hypertension in patients with diabetes and proteinuria (excess protein in the urine).

Active Ingredient & Action

Losartan potassium, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, works by blocking the action of a natural chemical that narrows blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. Hydrochlorothiazide, a diuretic, helps the body get rid of excess fluid by increasing urine production, which also helps to lower blood pressure.

Important Notes

It is essential to take HYZAAR exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Do not take more or less of the medication than directed, and do not stop taking it without consulting your doctor. Inform your doctor about any medical conditions you have, including kidney disease, liver disease, or allergies. HYZAAR may cause side effects such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or increased urination. If you experience any of these symptoms, consult your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
