A growing number of patients have been using the legal system as a way to receive compensation for the medical bills, pain, and suffering associated with these side-effects.
What is Benicar?
Benicar can help lower uncontrolled high blood pressure. It has a specific medical agent designed to block angiotensin II which is the chemical in your body that tightens and narrows blood vessels resulting in higher blood pressure. By blocking this specific chemical, Benicar can help lower blood pressure by helping your blood vessels relax and widen. Benicar also adds a medicine that decreases the water content in the body since water retention is also a factor in higher blood pressure.
