Losartan
12.5mg Losartan capsules, oral administration, twice daily (25mg total per day), taken for 30 consecutive days starting on the evening of the second post-surgery day. Losartan: Losartan will be administered to improve the quality of hip cartilage repair following arthroscopic microfracture. Losartan is a known anti-fibrotic agent via blocking of TGF-B1.
Placebo

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Drug related adverse events will be monitored during the medication phase (post-op days 2-31) and orthopaedic-related health and function will be monitored for the entire study duration (18 months).

Population: There was 1 subject enrolled into the Losartan arm, but withdrew before any follow-up data was collected. One serious adverse event was reported 3 days post-enrollment. This AE was determined to be unrelated to the research or study drug and is reported in the AE section.
