Q. Which medicine is considered safe for treating high blood pressure?
There are many blood pressure-lowering medicines which can be considered safe. Use of these medicines varies from person to person and can be based on various factors such as age, gender, other co-existing diseases, etc. For instance, a person below 55 years of age having no other coexisting disease may be prescribed angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARAs) (e.g., Valtan 40mg Tablet, losartan, olmesartan) or Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors (e.g., ramipril, captopril, or enalapril) by the doctor.
Q. Is Valtan 40mg Tablet bad for kidneys?
Valtan 40mg Tablet does not generally affect the working of a proper functioning kidney. However, it should be cautiously used in patients who have existing severe kidney impairment (creatinine clearance <10 ml/min) and are on dialysis as there is limited data to support the safety of these patients.
Q. Who should not be given Valtan 40mg Tablet?
Valtan 40mg Tablet should not be given to patients who are allergic to it, have severe liver disease, have diabetes, or impaired kidney function. Its use should be restricted if you are being treated with blood pressure lowering medicine containing aliskiren.

Q. What class of medicine is Valtan 40mg Tablet?
Valtan 40mg Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARAs). Angiotensin II is a substance in the body that causes vessels to tighten which leads to increase in blood pressure. Valtan 40mg Tablet works by blocking the effect of angiotensin II. As a result, blood vessels relax and blood pressure is lowered.
Q. Does Valtan 40mg Tablet cause weight gain?
No, Valtan 40mg Tablet does not cause weight gain as a side effect. However, if your kidney function deteriorates, then your body may swell due to accumulation of water (fluid retention) because of which you may gain weight. Inform your doctor if you experience any unexplained weight gain or swelling in your feet, ankles, or hands.
Q. How long do I need to take Valtan 40mg Tablet?
Continue taking Valtan 40mg Tablet as long as your doctor has prescribed. Do not stop taking it even if you start feeling better. You may even have to take it life long, since Valtan 40mg Tablet does not cure high blood pressure or heart failure but controls them.
Q. What is the most important information I should know about Valtan 40mg Tablet?
Taking Valtan 40mg Tablet during the last months of pregnancy can cause serious harm or even death of the unborn baby. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.

Q. Can I switch in between the brands of Valtan 40mg Tablet, since currently the brand I am using is not available?
No, do not switch to a different Valtan 40mg Tablet product unless your doctor says that you should. Since you have to take it daily, keep a stock of it. Each Valtan 40mg Tablet product releases the medication differently in your body and cannot be used interchangeably.
