Uses of Hyzaar

Hyzaar is also known by the generic name Losartan-Hydrochlorothiazide

USES:
This drug is used to treat high blood pressure. It is also used to lower the risk of strokes in patients with high blood pressure and an enlarged heart. Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. This product contains two medications:
