Description
Losartan blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin 2 by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin 2 to the receptor in many tissues, such as vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic (water pill). It reduces the amount of water in the body by increasing the flow of urine, which helps lower the blood pressure.
