losartan has been researched along with Loeys-Dietz Aortic Aneurysm Syndrome in 6 studies

Losartan: An antagonist of ANGIOTENSIN TYPE 1 RECEPTOR with antihypertensive activity due to the reduced pressor effect of ANGIOTENSIN II.
losartan : A biphenylyltetrazole where a 1,1'-biphenyl group is attached at the 5-position and has an additional trisubstituted imidazol-1-ylmethyl group at the 4'-position

Loeys-Dietz Aortic Aneurysm Syndrome: Loeys-Dietz Syndrome with aortic aneurysm or dissection.
