Buy Losartas HT 50mg/12.5mg Tablets 30’s Online Now in Nairobi, Kenya – Effective High Blood Pressure Treatment
Losartas HT 50mg/12.5mg Tablets is a combination medication containing Losartan (50mg) and Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg). It is used to manage high blood pressure (hypertension) effectively. This dual-action formula helps relax blood vessels and remove excess water and salts from the body, ensuring improved blood flow and reducing strain on the heart.
How Does Losartas HT Work?
Losartan (50mg): An angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) that works by inhibiting the effects of angiotensin, a hormone that causes blood vessels to narrow. This results in relaxed arteries, promoting better blood circulation and reducing blood pressure.
Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg): A diuretic (water pill) that helps eliminate excess water and electrolytes from the body. Over time, it also contributes to vasodilation (widening of blood vessels), further helping to manage hypertension.
