other parameters in model implementation

Losartan and diuretics (typically losartan combined with hydrochlorothiazide) is an antihypertensive combination therapy used in the treatment of high blood pressure. Losartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) while hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic; together, they provide a synergistic effect in reducing blood pressure. This combination is approved and widely used in clinical practice for hypertension management.

Pharmacokinetics

Pharmacokinetic estimates are provided for healthy adult subjects after oral administration of losartan in combination with a thiazide diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide). No published studies specifically reporting PK compartmental modeling parameters for the fixed-dose combination product. Estimates based on monograph and available data for the combination.
