WHAT LOSARTAN TEVA IS AND WHAT IT
IS USED FOR
Losartan Teva belongs to a group of medicines
known as angiotensin-
II
receptor antagonists.
Angiotensin-
II
is a substance produced in the
body which binds to receptors in blood vessels,
causing them to tighten. This results in an
increase in blood pressure. Losartan Teva
prevents the binding of angiotensin-
II
to these
receptors, causing the blood vessels to relax
which in turn lowers the blood pressure.
Losartan Teva slows the decrease of kidney
function in patients with high blood pressure and
type 2 diabetes.
Losartan Teva is used:
•
to treat patients with high blood pressure
(hypertension) in adults and in children and
adolescents 6-18 years of age
•
to protect the kidney in hypertensive type 2
diabetic patients with laboratory evidence of
impaired renal function and proteinuria ≥ 0.5 g
per day (a condition in which urine contains an
abnormal amount of protein).
•
to treat patients with chronic heart failure when
therapy with specific medicines called
angiotens
