Atacand HCT Medication Information

Chemical Name: CANDESARTAN (kan-de-SAR-tan) and HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE (hye-droe-klor-oh-THYE-a-zide)

Atacand HCT (called Atacand Plus in Canada)

Atacand HCT is made of two important substances called Candesartan and Hydrochlorothiazide. Candesartan is a type of medicine that is also known as an angiotensin II receptor antagonist or a blocker. Candesartan ensures the smooth flow of blood by preventing narrowing of blood vessels. It is used to treat hypertension, i.e., high blood pressure and used with other drugs to resolve heart failure issues.

Hydrochlorothiazide keeps the body from absorbing too much mineral salts as it can lead to fluid retention. A combination of the two drugs is considered helpful in treating high blood pressure problems. Both of them widen blood vessels and help them to relax to allow easy movement of blood.

You can buy Atacand HCT from Canada Pharmacy for incredibly low rates and have it be delivered to you.
