\/ Hydrochlorothiazide Krka.&nbsp;It is used to treat high&nbsp;blood pressure&nbsp;(&nbsp;hypertension&nbsp;) in adult patients.&nbsp;It contains two active ingredients: candesartan cilexetil and&nbsp;hydrochlorothiazide.&nbsp;They work together to lower your&nbsp;blood pressure.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Candesartan cilexetil belongs to a group of medicines called&nbsp;angiotensin&nbsp;II receptor antagonists.&nbsp;It causes your blood vessels to relax and dilate, which helps lower your&nbsp;blood pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hydrochlorothiazide&nbsp;is a group of medicines called&nbsp;diuretics&nbsp;(&nbsp;diuretic&nbsp;agent).&nbsp;It helps your body get rid of water and salts, such as&nbsp;sodium, in the urine.&nbsp;This helps to lower your&nbsp;blood pressure.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your doctor may prescribe Candesartan \/ Hydrochlorothiazide Krka if your&nbsp;blood pressure&nbsp;has not been adequately controlled on candesartan cilexetil or&nbsp;hydrochlorothiazide&nbsp;alone.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Candesartan cilexetil and&nbsp;hydrochlorothiazide&nbsp;contained in Candesartan \/ Hydrochlorothiazide Krka may also be approved for the
