INTRODUCTIONEprosartan is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) used for management of essential hypertension. With unique pharmacological characteristics, dual action mechanism, and clinical effectiveness, eprosartan offers additional advantages over other ARBs in specific patient populations.AREAS COVEREDA comprehensive review of the literature was performed across publicly available databases, with no time limitations, to ensure the inclusion of all relevant studies. The review focuses on presenting the efficacy and safety profile of eprosartan, alone or in combination with other agents. Additionally, it explores the etiology of hypertension concerning the structure and function of angiotensin II type 1 receptors. Further, the efficacy of eprosartan in special populations and its additional benefits are also discussed.EXPERT OPINIONEprosartan effectively reduces blood pressure (BP), with a 24-hour BP-lowering effect at 600 mg/day. Eprosartan demonstrates similar or better efficacy than other ARBs, such as telmisartan and losartan, particularly in managing coagulation-related abnormalities and peripheral resistance. In combination therapy, eprosartan with hydrochlorothiazide significantly enhances BP reduction. Eprosartan is well-tolerated, with a low incidence of adverse events, making it a reliable choice for long-term hypertension management across various patient populations, such as those with comorbid diabetes and renal disease and older adults.
