ARBAVAL 40MG Film-Coated Tablets

ARBAVAL 40MG Film-Coated Tablets contain Valsartan, an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults and children 6 to 18 years of age.
It is also prescribed to manage heart failure and to improve survival after a heart attack in clinically stable patients with reduced heart function.

Valsartan works by blocking the action of a natural substance in the body that constricts blood vessels, allowing blood to flow more smoothly and the heart to pump more efficiently.
This helps to lower blood pressure, reduce the workload on the heart, and improve overall cardiovascular health.
It is a prescription-only medication.

Benefits of Use

• Helps effectively lower high blood pressure, reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
• Improves symptoms and reduces hospitalizations associated with heart failure.
• Increases survival rates in patients who have experienced a recent heart attack and have reduced heart function.
• Provides significant cardiovascular protection by dilating blood vessels and improving blood flow.

1. Always take ARBAVAL 40MG Tablets exactly as prescribed by your doctor.

4. You can take ARBAVAL with or without food.
5. Take it at approximately the same time each day to maintain consistent blood levels.
