By blocking the action of certain natural substances that tighten blood vessels, this medication helps to relax and widen blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood throughout the body. This can help to lower blood pressure and improve overall cardiovascular health. Irbesartan may also be used to protect the kidneys in people with diabetes.

Pregnant women should avoid Irbesartan as it can harm the unborn baby.

What does Irbesartan interact with?
