1. What is Irbesartán Viatris and what is it used for
Irbesartán Viatris contains irbesartan, which belongs to a group of medicines known as angiotensin-II receptor antagonists. Angiotensin-II is a substance produced in the body that binds to receptors, causing blood vessels to constrict. This results in an increase in blood pressure. Irbesartan prevents angiotensin-II from binding to these receptors, relaxing blood vessels and reducing blood pressure. Irbesartan slows the deterioration of renal function in patients with high blood pressure and type 2 diabetes.
Irbesartán Viatris is used in adult patients:
- To treat high blood pressure (essential hypertension).
To protect the kidneys in patients with high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes, and clinical evidence of altered renal function.
