There are a variety of high blood pressure medication types and classes, for example, diuretics, beta-blockers, ACE inhibitors, ARBs, calcium channel blockers; and brand names like Clonidine, Tekturna, and Minoxidil. Side effects depend upon the specific
Angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors) are medications that slow (inhibit) the activity of the enzyme ACE, which decreases the production of angiotensin II. As a result, blood vessels enlarge or dilate, and blood pressure is reduced. This lower blood pressure makes it easier for...

Angiotensin receptor blocker/calcium channel blocker (ARB/CCB) combination drugs are used for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure). Hypertension is one of the major risk factors for cardiovascular disease, kidney disease, and stroke.
In Manske et al (1), reflecting decades-old medical practice, medical therapy included only short-acting nifedipine and aspirin without statin therapy, angiotensin-receptor blockers/angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, or beta-blockers, a regimen that would now be considered substandard (9,10)....

Angiotensin receptor blockers prevent the actions of angiotensin II on the arteries. This means the arteries stay more open and blood pressure is lowered. ARBs can take a few weeks to work. Side effects can include dizziness, muscle cramps, insomnia, and elevated potassium levels. As with ACE...
