About Covance:

Covance (Losartan Potassium) is a medicine which is most effective when used alone and is used to treat symptoms of high blood pressure. It can as well be used with other high blood pressure medications for instance diuretics which is helpful in removing excess water from the body. Of the new class of high blood pressure medicine referred to as angiotensin II receptor antagonists, this medicine is the first of such. It works partly by prevention of angiotensin II from constricting in the blood levels, and this directly reduces blood pressure.

How to use Covance

It is important to remember to take a lot of water when taking the medicine so as to prevent the risks of dehydration. Covance comes as tablets and the tablets should be taken whole and not chewed or crushed. Remember that there are no visual symptoms of hypertension and as so can prove hard to identify whether the medicine has any effects on you. Contact your physician in case you are unsure about something related to your prescription and dosages. Do not increase or lower your dosage unless a physician has reviewed your prescriptions. Take your dosage without skipping until its final day.
