candesartan cilexetil and Brain Infarction

candesartan cilexetil has been researched along with Brain Infarction in 2 studies

candesartan cilexetil: a prodrug which is metabolized to an active form candesartan to exert its biological effects

Brain Infarction: Tissue NECROSIS in any area of the brain, including the CEREBRAL HEMISPHERES, the CEREBELLUM, and the BRAIN STEM. Brain infarction is the result of a cascade of events initiated by inadequate blood flow through the brain that is followed by HYPOXIA and HYPOGLYCEMIA in brain tissue. Damage may be temporary, permanent, selective or pan-necrosis.
