Valsartan

Valsartan is a medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs). It is commonly prescribed to treat high blood pressure, heart failure, and to improve survival after a heart attack. Valsartan works by blocking the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that constricts blood vessels, thereby allowing the blood vessels to relax and widen, improving blood flow and reducing blood pressure.
