Preferred Label : Forasartan;

NCIt synonyms : 5-((3,5-dibutyl-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl)-2-(2-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)phenyl)pyridine;

NCIt definition : A nonpeptide angiotensin II receptor antagonist with antihypertensive activity. Forasartan selectively competes with angiotensin II for the binding of the angiotensin II (AT1) receptor subtype 1 in vascular smooth muscle, thereby blocking angiotensin II-mediated vasoconstriction resulting in vascular dilatation. In addition, the antagonistic effect on AT1 in the adrenal gland, prevents angiotensin II-induced stimulation of aldosterone synthesis and secretion by the adrenal cortex. This blocks the effects of aldosterone leading to an increase in sodium excretion and water and eventually a reduction in plasma volume and blood pressure.;
