ZOSTAT 50MG TABLET

High blood pressure in Pakistan is not just a number on a machine. It is a silent threat that builds up over years and then causes strokes, heart attacks and kidney failure without much warning. Zostat 50mg Tablet contains Losartan Potassium, a trusted angiotensin II receptor blocker that doctors across Pakistan prescribe to control blood pressure and protect vital organs.

What Zostat 50mg Tablet Is Used For

Zostat is prescribed for adults dealing with serious cardiovascular and kidney conditions. Doctors recommend it for:

• High blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and children above 6 years
• Reducing stroke risk in patients with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy
• Protecting the kidneys in type 2 diabetes patients with diabetic nephropathy
• Managing proteinuria and slowing kidney disease progression
• Patients who cannot tolerate ACE inhibitors and need an alternative antihypertensive

Active Ingredient

Each Zostat 50mg Tablet contains:

Losartan Potassium 50mg

Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker. Angiotensin II is a chemical in the body that tightens blood vessels and forces the heart to work harder. Losartan blocks the receptor where angiotensin II attaches. When that receptor is blocked, blood vessels relax. Blood flows with less resistance. Blood pressure drops. The heart works more easily.

Losartan also reduces the amount of protein leaking into urine in diabetic kidney disease. This slows damage to the kidneys and helps preserve their function longer.

How to Take Zostat 50mg Correctly

The usual starting dose for adults is 50mg once daily. Your doctor may increase this to 100mg once daily if more blood pressure control is needed.

Take it with or without food. Swallow with a full glass of water. Take it at the same time every day. Blood pressure control builds over weeks so consistency matters.

For elderly patients above 75 years, the starting dose is usually 25mg once daily. Children aged 6 to 18 years are dosed based on body weight. Children below 6 years should not use this medicine.

Do not stop taking Zostat 50mg suddenly without speaking to your doctor first.
