    Valsartan + Hydrochlorothiazide

    Used For

    Hypertension

    How it works

    Valsartan : Valsartan blocks the vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II by selectively blocking the binding of angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor in many tissues, such as vascular smooth muscle and the adrenal gland. Its action is therefore independent of the pathways for angiotensin II synthesis. Hydrochlorothiazide affects the renal tubular mechanisms of electrolyte reabsorption, directly increasing excretion of sodium and chloride in approximately equivalent amounts. Indirectly, the diuretic action of Hydrochlorothiazide reduces plasma volume, with consequent increases in plasma renin activity, increases in aldosterone secretion, increases in urinary potassium loss and decreases in serum potassium. The mechanism of the antihypertensive effect of thiazides is unknown.

    PRECAUTIONS

    Precaution

    In patients with an activated renin-angiotensin system, such as volume- and/or salt-depleted patients receiving high doses of diuretics, symptomatic hypotension may occur. This condition should be corrected prior to administration of the combination of Valsartan and Hydrochlorothiazide , or the treatment should start under close medical supervision.

    WARNINGS

    Warning 1

    Photosensitivity reactions have been reported with thiazide diuretics. If photosensitivity reaction occurs during treatment, it is recommended to stop the treatment. If a re-administration is necessary, it is recommended to protect exposed areas to the sun or to artificial UVA.

    Warning 2

    Hypersensitivity reactions may occur with Hydrochlorothiazide in patients with allergy and asthma.

    Warning 3

    Hydrochlorothiazide may alter glucose tolerance and raise serum levels of cholesterol and triglycerides.
