How Atra 50 Tablet works
Atra 50 Tablet is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It works by blocking the action of a chemical (angiotensin II) that causes blood vessels to tighten. As a result, the blood vessels relax and widen, which lowers the blood pressure. This helps the heart pump blood more efficiently and improves blood flow to vital organs. By reducing pressure in the arteries, Atra 50 helps lower the chances of cardiovascular events such as strokes or heart attacks. It also slows down kidney damage in people with diabetes and high blood pressure. Consistent use is key for maximum benefit.
