Angiotensin 2 receptor blocker (antagonist) pharmacology review. Mechanism of action vs ACE inhibitors, how ARBs work, side effects, example medications, indications, and contraindications explained.
Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) decrease the effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), similar to angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors.
Angiotensin II receptor blockers function to treat hypertension (raised blood pressure), heart failure, and renal disease through their effects on the kidneys and blood vessels.
