Description
Losacar 25 mg uses include high blood pressure treatment. By lowering blood pressure, it decreases the risk of various cardiovascular diseases, such as stroke and myocardial infarction. Losacar 25 composition includes the active ingredient Losartan Potassium, which synergistically reduces high blood pressure levels. Blood pressure is the force of blood pushing against blood vessel walls. High blood pressure (HBP) means the pressure in your arteries is higher than it should be. Another name for high blood pressure is hypertension. Blood pressure is written as two numbers, 117/79 mm Hg.
– The top systolic number is the pressure when the heartbeats
– The bottom, diastolic, number is the pressure when the heart rests between beats
Normal blood pressure is 120/80 mm Hg. High blood pressure is 140 systolic or higher pressure, and 90 diastolic or higher stays high over time.
Losartan is an Angiotensin-II receptor antagonist. Angiotensin II hormone exerts two prime effects: the constriction of blood vessels and the other is salt/fluid retention in the kidneys, which is caused by the formation of the aldosterone hormone. Losacar 25 mg stops the formation of Angiotensin-II, which in turn causes relaxation of blood vessels and increases the blood flow.
