The growing prevalence of hypertension is expected to drive the expansion of the losartan market in the near future. Hypertension, characterized by persistently high blood pressure, increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other serious health issues. The rise in hypertension is often linked to diets rich in salt and processed foods, which cause fluid retention and increase the strain on the heart. Losartan helps manage hypertension by blocking angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels. This action relaxes and widens the vessels, lowering blood pressure and reducing the heart's burden. For example, the American Heart Association reported that in January 2024, there were 131,454 deaths primarily associated with high blood pressure in 2022, an increase from 124,508 deaths in 2021. This rising prevalence of hypertension is driving the demand for losartan.
