Product Description
SACUVAL 200 is a fixed-dose combination medication containing Valsartan (103.00mg/Tablet) and Sacubitril (97.00mg/Tablet). Valsartan belongs to a class of medications known as angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), which help to relax blood vessels and lower blood pressure. Sacubitril belongs to a class of medications known as neprilysin inhibitors, which help to reduce the strain on the heart by increasing the levels of certain natural substances that widen blood vessels and remove excess fluid from the body. The combination of Valsartan and Sacubitril is used to treat heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, a condition where the heart does not pump blood as well as it should. This medication helps improve symptoms, reduce the risk of hospitalization, and extend life expectancy in patients with this condition.
