Dear Sir, Hi & Welcome.
Yes, it can be taken for the effective control of
high BP.
Valsartan is an
angiotensin II receptor blocker commonly prescribed for the treatment of
hypertension, to lower blood pressure.
Lowering blood pressure reduces the risk of fatal and nonfatal cardiovascular events, primarily strokes and myocardial infarctions.
Along with this medication, you need to have certain lifestyle changes for the effective control of high BP like:
1. Avoid smoking, alcohol, and stress.
2. Reduced the intake of dietary salt to less than 4 gm/day.
3. Continue doing exercise regularly.
4. Check your lipid levels, if high should be treated accordingly.
5. You must have a baseline ECG, kidney function tests, blood
glucose level, etc.
Hope the advice given above would be useful.
Best regards.
