Diovan 80mg is a prescription medication that contains Valsartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It is primarily used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and to improve heart function in patients with heart failure. By relaxing blood vessels, Diovan helps reduce blood pressure and lower the risk of cardiovascular complications.
Indications:
- Treatment of essential hypertension in adults and children aged 6 years and older.
- Management of heart failure in adults.
- Reduction of cardiovascular risk in high-risk patients following a heart attack.
Dosage: The usual starting dose for adults is 80mg once daily, with potential adjustments based on individual blood pressure response. Pediatric dosing is weight-based and should be determined by a healthcare provider.
Mechanism of Action: Valsartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that constricts blood vessels. By inhibiting this effect, Diovan helps widen blood vessels, improving blood flow and lowering blood pressure.
