What Is Valsartan 80mg?
Valsartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) sold under the brand name Diovan. It works by blocking a hormone that narrows blood vessels, which lowers blood pressure and reduces strain on the heart. It is prescribed on its own or alongside other medicines — for example, some patients take amlodipine and valsartan together, either as separate tablets or as a fixed-dose combination. This page is for the single-ingredient valsartan 80mg tablet, which requires a valid prescription.
