Candesartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), can affect kidney function by reducing proteinuria and slowing the progression of kidney disease, particularly in patients with hypertension or diabetes. However, in some cases, it may lead to a temporary decrease in kidney function, especially when first initiated, due to its effects on blood flow to the kidneys. Regular monitoring of kidney function is recommended for patients taking candesartan. For further consultation, you can contact us at our toll-free number, 1-800-891-0844, or chat with us online.
