Valsartan

Valsartan tablets typically contain either 40 mg, 80 mg, 160 mg, or 320 mg of Valsartan as the active ingredient. In addition to Valsartan, the tablets may also contain excipients such as microcrystalline cellulose, crospovidone, colloidal anhydrous silica, and magnesium stearate.

Common side effects of Valsartan may include dizziness, low blood pressure, and headache. In rare cases, Valsartan can cause serious side effects such as kidney problems, liver issues, or allergic reactions. Seek immediate medical help if you experience symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, such as rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.

Do not use Valsartan if you are pregnant, as it can harm your unborn baby. Inform your doctor if you have a history of certain conditions like kidney disease, liver disease, or dehydration. Valsartan may interact with other medications, so let your healthcare provider know about all the drugs you are taking, especially potassium supplements or diuretics. If you have heart problems or are on blood pressure-lowering medications, consult your doctor before using Valsartan.
