1.
WHAT COZAAR COMP IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Cozaar Comp is a combination of an angiotensin II receptor antagonist
(losartan) and a
diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide). 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 prevents the binding of angiotensin II to
these receptors, causing
the blood vessels to relax which in turn lowers the blood pressure.
Hydrochlorothiazide
works by making the kidneys pass more water and salt. This also helps
to reduce blood
pressure.
Cozaar Comp is indicated for the treatment of essential hypertension
(high blood
pressure).
