Pratosartan is primarily used in the treatment of hypertension, helping to manage high blood pressure by relaxing blood vessels. It is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist, which means it blocks the action of a hormone that narrows blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more smoothly. This medication is often prescribed to reduce the risk of strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems associated with high blood pressure. It is typically administered orally and is part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include lifestyle changes such as diet and exercise. Patients are advised to follow their healthcare provider’s instructions carefully to achieve optimal results.
