Losartan  is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist drug used mainly to treat high blood pressure.

How it Work 

Ramipril, is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor.

By inhibiting an enzyme, ACE inhibitors relax the muscles around small arteries (arterioles). The arterioles expand and allow blood to flow through more easily. This reduces blood pressure.

( Normally, angiotensin I is converted to angiotensin II by an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Angiotensin II constricts blood vessels, increasing blood pressure. By inhibiting the ACE, Hence it decreases levels of angiotensin II leading to less vasoconstriction and decreased blood pressure. thereby it lowers the blood pressure. Hence As a result the heart relaxes and work more efficiently. Moreover use either by mouth or injection into a vein.)

Losartan relaxes the blood vessels which lowers the blood pressure and also reduces the workload of the heart. As a result, the heart works more efficiently.
