About Angiotensin II Receptor Antagonists (ARBs).

Angiotensin II receptor antagonists, commonly known as angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), are a class of cardiovascular medications that selectively block the binding of angiotensin II to angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptors.

By preventing the downstream vasoconstrictive and aldosterone-secreting actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, these agents promote vasodilation, enhance sodium and water excretion, and reduce vascular resistance.

Clinically, ARBs are widely prescribed as primary therapies for managing hypertension, treating heart failure, and slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease, particularly diabetic nephropathy.
