Candistrum 8 Tablet 10 contains candesartan (8 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Angiotensin II receptor blockade: Candesartan selectively blocks receptors for a hormone called angiotensin II, preventing this hormone from binding to its receptors in blood vessels and other tissues.

• Blood vessel relaxation: By blocking angiotensin II receptors, this medication causes blood vessels to relax and widen (dilate), thereby reducing the resistance against which your heart must pump blood.

• Sodium and water balance: Candesartan increases the excretion of sodium and water through your kidneys, which helps reduce the total volume of blood circulating in your body.

• Blood pressure reduction: Through the combined effects of blood vessel dilation and reduced blood volume, this medicine effectively lowers your blood pressure.

• Cardiac workload decrease: By reducing blood pressure, candesartan decreases the workload on your heart, making it easier for the heart to pump blood efficiently to all organs.
