Candesartan works by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a substance in the body that causes blood vessels to constrict. By inhibiting this action, candesartan helps relax blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and reducing the workload on the heart.
The typical starting dose for hypertension is 8 mg once daily, which may be adjusted up to 32 mg daily based on patient response. For heart failure, the usual starting dose is 4 mg once daily, which can be increased to a target dose of 32 mg daily, depending on tolerance.

Common side effects may include dizziness, headache, back pain, or cold-like symptoms. Before starting treatment with candesartan, inform your doctor if you have any other health problems, such as kidney, heart, or liver-related issues, as certain medical conditions may affect your treatment and may require dose modifications.
