Benefits of Repace H Tablet

In Treatment of Hypertension (high blood pressure)

REPACE H 25 MG/12.5 MG TABLET is a combination of two medicines namely Losartan and Hydrochlorothiazide.

You do not usually feel any direct benefit from taking this medicine, but it works in the long term to keep you well.
