Cozaar Comp is primarily used for managing high blood pressure, often referred to as hypertension. It combines two active ingredients: Losartan Potassium, an angiotensin II receptor blocker, and Hydrochlorothiazide, a diuretic.

This combination therapy is often prescribed for individuals who require dual-action treatment to achieve optimal blood pressure control.
