Omen 20 mg Tablet reduces elevated blood pressure. It is an angiotensin-II receptor blocker (ARB) and widens the narrowed blood vessels by blocking angiotensin (a hormone that narrows the blood vessels increasing the blood pressure), therefore blocking angiotensin can result in widening of the narrowed blood vessels. This effect allows the blood to flow more smoothly in the blood vessels and thus lowering blood pressure.
