Covance D Cp 50/12.5mg Bottle Of 30 Tablets Description

Covance D Tablet is a combination of Hydrochlorothiazide and Losartan, an anti-hypertensive. Covance D Tablet is used to treat high blood pressure when it cannot be managed using single medicine. Los

artan and Hydrochlorothiazide belong to a class of medicines known as "Angiotensin receptor blocker (ARBs)" and "Diuretics" respectively. This medicine acts by relaxing the blood vessels and increasing diuresis, which works synergistically to lower the raised blood pressure. Pregnant women should not take this medicine. Do not stop taking Covance D abruptly, as it may cause sudden hypertensive crises and worsen your health further. Always take it as prescribed and advised by your doctor. Visit a nearby clinic or hospital in case of any side effect that worsens or remain persistent.
