High Blood Pressure and heart issues are becoming more common than ever. With busy lifestyles, poor diets, and stress, many people are finding themselves in need of medicines to manage these conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One group of medicines that doctors often prescribe is Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers (ARBs). These medicines are known to be effective in controlling High Blood Pressure or Hypertension, and a number of other heart and related problems. But just like all medicines, ARBs come with their own set of side effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, you will read about the most common and serious Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers side effects you should watch out for and how ARBs work. <\/p>\n\n\n

How ARBs work and why side effects occur?<\/h2>\n\n\n

Angiotensin II receptor blockers, also called ARBs, are a group of medications used to treat Hypertension<\/a>, heart failure, Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD), diabetic nephropathy, and certain cases of heart attack.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These medicines work by blocking the action of a hormone called Angiotensin II. This hormone usually narrows blood vessels and increases blood pressure. When ARBs block angiotensin II, the blood vessels stay more relaxed and open. As a result, blood pressure goes down, and the heart doesn\u2019t have to work as hard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some well-known ARBs are Losartan<\/a> (Cozaar), Valsartan (Diovan), Telmisartan (Micardis), Irbesartan (Avapro), Candesartan (Atacand) and Olmesartan (Benicar). Each of these medicines works in the same way but may have small differences in how long they last or how strong they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ARBs side effects happen because the medicine can affect other parts of the body besides its main target, leading to unwanted reactions. Individual factors like age, health conditions, and other medications can also influence how your body responds. With the right dosage and doctor’s guidance, it\u2019s both safe and effective for long-term use.<\/p>\n\n\n

Common Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers side effects<\/h2>\n\n\n

Most people who take ARBs do not experience serious side effects. These medications are generally well-tolerated. However, that doesn\u2019t mean side effects are impossible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
