Losartan Potassium 50mg. + Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg is a combination medication used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension).

Losartan Potassium is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that works by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood. It helps lower blood pressure and is often used to reduce the risk of stroke and kidney damage, particularly in patients with diabetes or heart conditions.

Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic (water pill) that works by helping the kidneys remove excess sodium and water from the body, which helps reduce blood volume and, in turn, lowers blood pressure.

This combination medication is typically prescribed when blood pressure is not adequately controlled by a single medication, offering the dual benefits of both a blood vessel relaxant (Losartan) and a diuretic (Hydrochlorothiazide). It is usually taken once daily and can help reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and kidney problems associated with high blood pressure.
