High blood pressure (hypertension)
-
Symptomatic heart failure, a condition where the heart does not pump
the blood through your
body as well as it should.
-
Heart attack (acute myocardial infarction) that may lead to a
weakening of your heart.
-
Kidney problems related to diabetes and high blood pressure.
Lestace is recommended in children and adolescents (6 to 16 years old)

blood pressure (hypertension).
