Salt Composition

Losartan (50mg) + Hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg)

Overview Lostat-H Tablet

Hypertan-Duo tablets combine two active ingredients to manage hypertension through complementary mechanisms. Untreated high blood pressure significantly increases the risk of heart attack, stroke, and kidney disease. Hypertan-Duo can be taken with or without food; dosage is individualized based on your response and health status. Consistent daily timing is recommended. Continuous use, as directed by your physician, is crucial. The formulation includes a diuretic, promoting increased urination; therefore, avoid taking it within four hours of bedtime. Regular use maximizes therapeutic benefit, even in the absence of noticeable symptoms (as hypertension is often asymptomatic). Discontinuing treatment raises the risk of cardiovascular events. Dizziness is a common side effect; others include fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, headache, and hypotension. Increased urination is an intended effect of the diuretic component (hydrochlorothiazide) aiding blood pressure control, not a side effect. While other, less frequent side effects may occur, consult the accompanying patient information leaflet. Report bothersome or persistent side effects to your doctor; dosage adjustment or alternative medication may be considered. Use during pregnancy is not advised; individuals with kidney or liver impairment, heart conditions, or diabetes should consult their physician before commencing treatment. Alcohol consumption may exacerbate hypotension and side effects.
