valsartan

Valsartan is a medication commonly used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. It works by blocking a substance in the body called angiotensin II, which causes blood vessels to narrow. By preventing the narrowing, valsartan helps relax blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump and lowering blood pressure. This can reduce the risk of serious health issues like strokes or heart attacks. Valsartan is usually taken once daily and is often prescribed alongside other medications for better blood pressure management. It’s important to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions when using this medication.
