Artazide Tablet is a combination medication containing Losartan 50mg and Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg, specifically designed to effectively manage high blood pressure. This dual-action formulation combines an angiotensin II receptor blocker with a thiazide diuretic to provide comprehensive cardiovascular support.
Uses
Artazide Tablet is primarily used to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) in patients who require multiple mechanisms of action. It helps lower blood pressure, reduce fluid retention, and manage cardiovascular risk factors effectively. The medication is particularly beneficial for patients who have not responded adequately to single-medication treatments.

How It Works
Losartan blocks angiotensin II receptors, preventing blood vessel constriction, while Hydrochlorothiazide acts as a diuretic, removing excess water and salt from the body. This combined approach effectively lowers blood pressure through multiple complementary mechanisms.
