Atacand HCT is prescribed to treat high blood pressure (hypertension). Atacand HCT is a combination of the generic drugs Hydrochlorothiazide and Candesartan. Hydrochlorothiazide is a Thiazide Diuretic (water pill) that helps prevent your body from absorbing too much salt, which can cause fluid retention. Candesartan is in a group of drugs called Angiotensin II receptor antagonists. Candesartan keeps blood vessels from narrowing, which lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow.
