How it Works?
Renolsar 20 Tablet contains olmesartan medoxomil (20 mg), which functions in the body by:
• Blocking Angiotensin II: Olmesartan inhibits the binding of angiotensin II to receptors on blood vessels, preventing vasoconstriction.
• Relaxing Blood Vessels: By blocking angiotensin II, it facilitates vasodilation, reducing blood pressure.
• Independent Mechanism: Olmesartan's efficacy is independent of the formation process of angiotensin II.
