Both Ezrapil and Erastapex are used to treat high blood pressure, but they belong to two different classes of medications that work by different mechanisms to achieve this goal. Understanding the differences between them helps determine the most appropriate medication for each patient based on their health condition and individual needs.
Ingredients of Ezrapil Tablets
Ezrapil tablets contain the active ingredient enalapril maleate. Enalapril is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, which works by blocking the production of a chemical in the body that constricts blood vessels, leading to their dilation and lowering blood pressure.
Ingredients of Erastapex Tablets
Erstapex tablets contain the active ingredient olmesartan medoxomil. Olmesartan belongs to the class of angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). These medications work by blocking the effect of another chemical in the body (angiotensin II) on its receptors in blood vessels, leading to dilation and lower blood pressure.
