Suggest An Effective Alternative To Valsartan

My Pharmacy told me I had a new prescription from my PCP. I have been taking Valsartan, for hypertension but they told me it had been changed to something that sounded like Ahahve . I looked it up on google but could nt find a BP drug of that name. Spelling check did not offer alternative spellings.

I understand your concern and would explain that there is no anti-hypertensive drug with this name. It must be an error. I recommend consulting again with your doctor and take a written prescription of the new drug.
