Cozaar (losartan potassium)
Generic form:
Cozaar tablets: 50 mg or 100 mg
Dosage
The usual dosage of Cozaar is 5 mg once daily, with or without food.
Doses should be taken as prescribed by the physician.
Mechanism of Action
Cozaar inhibits the binding of calcium, a substance present in plasma and in the cerebrospinal fluid, to the protein kinase C receptor (cyclic GMP). It is known that the amount of calcium that is bound to the protein kinase C receptor is increased by the inhibition of the phosphorylation of the receptor. As a result, the level of calcium decreases, and plasma protein kinase C levels fall. This effect is responsible for lowering intrathecal pressure.
Interaction with Other Drugs
Cozaar may decrease the amount of plasma protein kinase C (PKA) or reduce the level of calcium. The combination may also decrease the effect of other drugs that are known to interfere with the metabolism of the drug. Inhibition of the PKA/cyclic GMP complex may increase the activity of drugs that have affinity for PKA/cyclic GMP. The interaction between cozaar and the other drugs that have a similar effect on the co-oproteinase is unknown.
Dosage Limit
The dose of Cozaar is dependent on the individual patient's condition and the dose-titration regimen. In the event that the dose of Cozaar is not sufficient for the patient's condition or the dosage is too low, a second dose should be given.
