* Dosing Information


'''Candesartan''' ([[International Nonproprietary Name|rINN]]) {{IPAc-en|ˌ|k|æ|n|d|ɨ|ˈ|s|ɑr|t|ən}} is an [[[[angiotensin]] II receptor antagonist]] used mainly for the treatment of [[[[hypertension]]]]. The [[prodrug]] '''candesartan cilexetil''' is marketed by [[AstraZeneca]] and [[Takeda Pharmaceuticals]], commonly under the [[trade name]]s '''Blopress''', '''Atacand''', '''Amias''', and '''Ratacand'''.

==Mechanism of Action==
:* (Dosage)


[[angiotensin]] II is formed from [[angiotensin]] I in a reaction catalyzed by [[angiotensin]]-converting enzyme (ACE, kininase II). [[angiotensin]] II is the principal pressor agent of the renin-[[angiotensin]] system, with effects that include vasoconstriction, stimulation of synthesis and release of aldosterone, cardiac stimulation, and renal reabsorption of sodium. Candesartan blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of [[angiotensin]] II by selectively blocking the binding of [[angiotensin]] II to the AT1 receptor in many tissues, such as vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland. Its action is, therefore, independent of the pathways for [[angiotensin]] II synthesis.
=====Condition 2=====


There is also an AT2 receptor found in many tissues, but AT2 is not known to be associated with cardiovascular homeostasis. Candesartan has much greater affinity (>10,000-fold) for the AT1 receptor than for the AT2 receptor.
* Developed by: (Organisation)


Blockade of the renin-[[angiotensin]] system with ACE inhibitors, which inhibit the biosynthesis of [[angiotensin]] II from [[angiotensin]] I, is widely used in the treatment of [[hypertension]]. ACE inhibitors also inhibit the degradation of [[bradykinin]], a reaction also catalyzed by ACE. Because candesartan does not inhibit ACE (kininase II), it does not affect the response to [[bradykinin]]. Whether this difference has clinical relevance is not yet known. Candesartan does not bind to or block other hormone receptors or ion channels known to be important in cardiovascular regulation.
* Class of Recommendation: (Class) (Link)


Blockade of the [[angiotensin]] II receptor inhibits the negative regulatory feedback of [[angiotensin]] II on renin secretion, but the resulting increased plasma renin activity and [[angiotensin]] II circulating levels do not overcome the effect of candesartan on blood pressure.
