Candesartan cilexetil is a prodrug of the potent, long-acting, and selective angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1) antagonist, candesartan. It is rapidly hydrolyzed to candesartan during gastrointestinal absorptio. Candesartan blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor in many tissues, such as vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland. Its action is, therefore, independent of the pathways for angiotensin II synthesis. Candesartan has much greater affinity ( > 10,000-fold) for the AT1 receptor than for the AT2 receptor.Application&Function
Candesartan is a medicine widely used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and heart failure.
Candesartan helps to prevent future strokes, heart attacks and kidney problems. It also improves your survival if you're taking it for heart failure.
Candesartan works by relaxing blood vessels so blood can flow more easily.
