Pharmacological Effects: Losartan blocks the action of certain natural substances that tighten blood vessels, allowing smoother blood flow and more efficient heart pumping. Hydrochlorothiazide helps the body eliminate extra salt and water by increasing urine production.
Clinical Trials: In a randomized controlled trial with 500 patients, the combination of losartan and hydrochlorothiazide significantly reduced both systolic and diastolic blood pressure compared to placebo, with a good safety profile.
