    • Life Sciences

Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs) are a class of antihypertensive medications that act on Angiotensin receptor I on vascular smooth muscles and adrenal glands, there by preventing the binding of Angiotensin II. This leads to a decrease in vasoconstriction and aldosterone production, which altogether results in reduced blood pressure.
