Medicine Description disartan-co 160/12.5 mg
DISARTAN-CO 160/12.5 mg capsules UAE DISARTAN-CO is a medication used primarily to treat high blood pressure and is one of a group of medications known as angiotensin II receptor blockers. This medication works by blocking the effect of the hormone angiotensin II, which causes blood vessels to constrict, which leads to their expansion and lowering blood pressure, thus reducing the effort made by the heart to pump blood to the body. In addition to its role in treating high blood pressure, DISARTAN-CO may be prescribed to patients with other health problems.
DISARTAN-CO can be used to reduce the risk of stroke in individuals who suffer from high blood pressure accompanied by an enlarged heart muscle. This medication may also be part of a treatment plan for patients who suffer from kidney damage as a result of diabetes. This medication is characterized by the fact that it may be more effective for some patients who cannot tolerate the side effects of other medications such as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors.
