Eprosartan is primarily used in the treatment of high blood pressure (hypertension). It works by blocking the action of certain natural substances that tighten the blood vessels, allowing the blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently. By lowering high blood pressure, it helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems.

In addition to managing hypertension, eprosartan may be prescribed to patients with type 2 diabetes to protect kidney function, especially in those with proteinuria (excess protein in the urine). It is often part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and weight management.

Eprosartan is typically taken orally, once or twice daily, with or without food. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and consult a healthcare provider for any adjustments or concerns. Regular monitoring of blood pressure and kidney function is recommended to ensure optimal results.
