Irecon H 300mg/12.5mg Tablet is a combination medicine containing Irbesartan 300mg and Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5mg. It is used for the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension) when single therapy is not enough to control blood pressure.

Irbesartan helps relax blood vessels, while Hydrochlorothiazide works as a diuretic (water pill) that removes excess salt and fluid from the body. Together, they effectively lower blood pressure and reduce cardiovascular risks.
