Are Cozaar And Indapamide Drug Combination Effective For Hypertension?

I have been on Indapamide for a couple of years. My bloodpressure was around 140 /80. I have been going through a lot of stress lately and my last reading was 160/80. So my doctor just recently prescribed Cozaar. Along with the Indapamide . Does this sound like the right combination?

Thank you for the question. Cozaar acts to decrease blood pressure with a different mechanism than indapamide. Either of these drugs alone are reasonable as a first choice for treating high blood pressure and using them in combination is also very common and usually appropriate.
