Are you Looking to Buy Atacand HCT (Candesartan/HCTZ) from PrescriptionPoint.

Atacand HCT (candesartan/hctz)

Indications 

• Atacand HCT tablets are prescribed for: 
• Treatment of Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): Atacand HCT is used to lower high blood pressure, which helps to prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. 
• Combination Therapy: It is indicated for patients who need a combination of an angiotensin II receptor blocker (candesartan cilexetil) and a diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide) to effectively control blood pressure. 
• Managing Fluid Retention: The diuretic component helps in reducing fluid retention (edema) that can occur with certain heart or kidney conditions. 

Ingredients 

• Active Ingredients: Candesartan cilexetil, hydrochlorothiazide. 
• Inactive Ingredients: Calcium carmellose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate, corn starch, polyethylene glycol, ferric oxide red (in 16 mg/12.5 mg and 32 mg/12.5 mg tablets), ferric oxide yellow (in 32 mg/25 mg tablets), titanium dioxide. 

Dosage and Administration 

• Take Atacand HCT exactly as prescribed by your doctor, typically once daily. 
• Swallow the tablets whole with a glass of water, with or without food. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is close to your next dose. 
• Regularly monitor your blood pressure to ensure the medication is working effectively. 
• Maintain a consistent intake of potassium in your diet, as diuretics like hydrochlorothiazide can cause potassium loss. 
• Do not stop taking Atacand HCT without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well, as high blood pressure often has no symptoms. 
• Avoid using this medication if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, as it can harm the fetus. 
• Do not use potassium supplements or salt substitutes containing potassium without consulting your healthcare provider. 

Mechanism of Action 

Atacand HCT combines two medications to control blood pressure. Candesartan cilexetil is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that causes blood vessels to tighten. Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that helps eliminate excess salt and water from the body, reducing blood volume and, consequently, blood pressure. Together, these actions help to effectively lower blood pressure. 

Contraindications 

• Do not use Atacand HCT if you are allergic to candesartan cilexetil, hydrochlorothiazide, or any of the tablet’s components. 
• Avoid use during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters, due to the risk of harm to the developing fetus. 
• Patients with severe kidney impairment or anuria (inability to urinate) should not use this medication. 
• Avoid if you have a known history of hypersensitivity to sulfonamide-derived drugs. 
• Do not take Atacand HCT if you have severe liver disease or cholestasis (bile flow obstruction) without consulting your healthcare provider. 

Side Effects 

Common Side Effects: 

• Dizziness 
• Headache 
• Fatigue 
• Increased urination

Serious Side Effects:

• Severe allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing) 

Precautions 

• Inform your doctor if you have a history of kidney or liver disease before starting Atacand HCT. 
• Use with caution if you have a history of gout, as hydrochlorothiazide can increase uric acid levels. 
• Regular blood tests may be required to monitor electrolytes, especially potassium, and kidney function during treatment. 
• Inform your healthcare provider of all other medications you are taking, as Atacand HCT can interact with other drugs, including NSAIDs, lithium, and other blood pressure medications. 
• Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe dizziness, fainting, or signs of an allergic reaction.
