Diovan HCT Information
Diovan HCT is referred to as an ARB, which is angiotensin receptor blocker. The drug shows strong affinity towards the type 1 of the angiotensin receptor which is the AT1 receptor. The drug is primarily used for the treatment of patients with hypertension. The drug may be used as a monotherapy for treating hypertension. Alternatively, the generic drug may also be used as a combination therapy, along with other drugs for treating high blood pressure. Typically, the drug is used in those patients who are not able to control their blood pressure with a monotherapy. The drug acts by dilating the blood vessels. Discount Diovan HCT is readily available with a prescription.
