Valsartan is the second of a class of drugs known as angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) that is used for treating high blood pressure. It is similar to losartan (Cozaar). Valsartan blocks the ability of angiotensin II to constrict or squeeze arteries and veins, thereby reducing blood pressure and reducing the pressure in the arteries that the heart must pump against. It also reduces deaths due to cardiovascular disease in patients with heart failure following a heart attack. Valsartan was approved by the FDA in December of 1996. 

Valsartan + HCT - is one tablet that acts on blood pressure in two ways. First, the Valsartan component specifically blocks the negative effects of a hormone that causes our arteries to tighten and narrow. This action, called vasoconstriction, can cause high blood pressure. Second, Valsartan HCT includes hydrochlorothiazide (another blood pressure medication, called a diuretic) that causes water to move out of the body (through urination) and, thereby, reduces plasma (blood) volume. This medication is for patients who need more than Valsartan or diuretics alone to control their numbers.

SIDE EFFECTS. Valsartan is generally well-tolerated and side effects are rare. The most common reasons for discontinuation of therapy with valsartan are headache and dizziness. Side effects may include: Abdominal pain, allergic reactions, back pain, blurred vision, cough, diarrhea, dizziness, fainting, fatigue, headache, joint pain, low blood pressure, nausea, runny nose, sinus inflammation, sore throat, swelling, swollen mouth and throat, upper respiratory infections, vertigo, viral infections.
