1. WHAT IRBESARTAN/ HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE AUROBINDO IS AND WHAT IT IS USED
FOR
Irbesartan/ Hydrochlorothiazide Aurobindo is a combination of two
active substances, irbesartan
and hydrochlorothiazide.
Irbesartan belongs to a group of medicines known as angiotensin-II
receptor antagonists.
Angiotensin-II is a substance produced in the body that binds to
receptors in blood vessels causing
them to tighten. This results in an increase in blood pressure.
Irbesartan prevents the binding of
angiotensin-II to these receptors, causing the blood vessels to relax
and the blood pressure to lower.
Hydrochlorothiazide is one of a group of medicines (called thiazide
diuretics) that causes increased
urine output and so causes a lowering of blood pressure.
The two active ingredients in Irbesartan/ Hydrochlorothiazide
