About This Medicine
Product description & overview
LTK 50 Tablet contains Losartan 50 mg, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist primarily used to manage hypertension and reduce the risk of stroke in patients with left ventricular hypertrophy. Losartan works by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor, thereby inhibiting vasoconstriction and aldosterone secretion, which leads to vasodilation and decreased blood pressure. This medication is indicated for the treatment of high blood pressure, helping to prevent complications such as stroke, myocardial infarction, and kidney problems. Additionally, LTK 50 is utilized in patients with diabetic nephropathy to slow the progression of kidney disease. The tablet is typically administered once daily, with or without food, and dosage adjustments may be necessary based on clinical response and renal function. Common side effects include dizziness, fatigue, and upper respiratory infections, while serious adverse effects are rare but may involve hyperkalemia or renal impairment. LTK 50 should be used cautiously in patients with impaired liver or kidney function and is contraindicated during pregnancy due to potential fetal harm. Regular monitoring of blood pressure, renal function, and electrolytes is recommended during therapy to ensure safety and efficacy.
