Edarbyclor

Uses of Edarbyclor

Edarbyclor is a prescription drug used to provide medical care to people with high blood pressure (hypertension). It is a combination of azilsartan and chlorthalidone.

Azilsartan is specifically designed for the management of hypertension. It is a part of a group of drugs called angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). Meanwhile, chlorthalidone is a diuretic or water pill that works in the kidneys and gets rid of excess water and salt from the body. The combination of these medications makes it easier to lower blood pressure.
