Hypertension: COZAAR is indicated for the treatment of hypertension.
Hypertensive Patients with Left Ventricular Hypertrophy: COZAAR is indicated to reduce the risk of stroke in patients with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy, but there is evidence that this benefit does not apply to Black patients (see Race under PRECAUTIONS).
Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetic Patients: Indicated for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy with an elevated serum creatinine and proteinuria (urinary albumin to creatinine ratio ≥300 mg/g) in patients with type 2 diabetes and a history of hypertension. In this population, COZAAR reduces the rate of progression of nephropathy as measured by the occurrence of doubling the serum creatinine or end stage renal disease (need for dialysis or renal transplantation) or death.
