Losartan and amlodipine is a fixed-dose combination drug used for the treatment of hypertension. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that relaxes blood vessels, while amlodipine is a calcium channel blocker that also dilates blood vessels. This combination is approved and commonly used today for patients whose blood pressure is not adequately controlled by either drug alone.
