What does it do?

Eprosartan mesylate belongs to the class of angiotensin II receptor blockers and is used to control blood pressure. It is primarily included in medications to lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Eprosartan mesylate works by preventing the binding of angiotensin II, a substance that constricts blood vessels, to blood vessel receptors, thereby dilating the blood vessels. This reduces vascular resistance and lowers blood pressure.
