Diovan Information:
Diovan (generic name: Valsartan) is a drug which is prescribed for the treatment of high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. High blood pressure is one of the risk factors that can increase the likelihood of developing heart disease, stroke and other serious conditions. It belongs to the group of drugs called angiotensin II receptor antagonists. It works by preventing the blood vessels from narrowing which promotes better blood flow and reduces blood pressure. It is also prescribed to patients after a heart attack to reduce the risk of death. High blood pressure (hypertension) is diagnosed by giving several blood pressure readings. If a reading is high, then a patient is usually monitored and given several blood pressure readings before a diagnosis is made and medication prescribed.
Valsartan is a generic drug used to treat certain cardiovascular disorders. It is manufactured by licensed generic manufacturers. This product DOES NOT originate from Novartis and IS NOT authorized by Novartis, the owner and maker of the branded Diovan prescription pharmaceutical product.
