Azilsartan is a type of cardiovascular drug used to treat hypertension. It is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) that works by blocking the action of a hormone called angiotensin II, which helps to reduce blood pressure. Azilsartan is usually prescribed in combination with other medications, such as diuretics, to help control high blood pressure. It is also used to reduce the risk of stroke, heart attack, and kidney problems in people with high blood pressure. Azilsartan is available in both oral and injectable forms. Azilsartan is a relatively new drug on the market, but it has been gaining popularity due to its effectiveness in treating hypertension. It is generally well-tolerated and has fewer side effects than other ARBs. It is also more cost-effective than some other ARBs. Some companies that produce Azilsartan include Daiichi Sankyo, Takeda Pharmaceuticals, and AstraZeneca. Show Less Read more
