J C Gillis et al.
Drugs, 54(6), 885-902 (1998-01-09)
Irbesartan inhibits the activity of angiotensin II (AII) via specific, selective noncompetitive antagonism of the AII receptor subtype 1 (AT1) which mediates most of the known physiological activities of AII. In patients with mild to moderate hypertension, once daily administration
Giuseppe Derosa et al.
Current vascular pharmacology, 7(2), 120-136 (2009-04-10)
Blood pressure (BP) is one of the most important and common vascular risk factors but it is often poorly controlled. Inhibition of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) provides beneficial effects in hypertensives. The association of low-dosed diuretics in combination with RAAS
