Abstract
Angiotensin-receptor blockers (ARBs) are frequently used in cardiology practice. Thanks to their potent antihypertensive effects, and lower side effect profiles, these drugs are well tolerated, and used for various indications in the field of cardiovascular medicine. This article summarizes clinical fields, and large-scale clinical studies where efficacy of ARBs has been demonstrated.
