About ARBs (Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers)—High Blood Pressure Medication
ARBs (Angiotensin II Receptor Blockers) block the effects of a chemical in the body called angiotensin II.
Angiotensin II causes blood vessels to narrow. This raises your blood pressure.
ARBs block the harmful effects of angiotensin II, so blood vessels relax and blood pressure is lowered.
