Irbesartan
This angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) is used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure, and kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes. It works by blocking the AT1 receptor for angiotensin II, causing blood vessels to relax and reducing aldosterone secretion. It is often used in patients who cannot tolerate ACE inhibitors due to cough.
