Vytan 160mg Tablet 30s (Box)

Vytan 160mg Tablet belongs to a drug class known as angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs), and its active ingredient is valsartan 160 mg. If your doctor has prescribed this for you, it's helpful to know that some of the more commonly reported effects include dizziness, headache, tiredness, and occasionally a mild cough or stomach discomfort. This is a prescription-only medicine most commonly used to manage high blood pressure, and it's often chosen because it tends to be well tolerated with relatively few side effects for most people. Many find it reassuring that valsartan can typically be taken once daily, at any time of day, with or without food, which makes it easier to fit into a regular routine. As always, keep your doctor informed of your kidney and liver function, and let them know right away if you think you might be pregnant, as this class of medicine is not suitable during pregnancy.

The usual starting dose for high blood pressure is 80 mg once daily, which your doctor may increase up to 160 mg once daily, or further with the addition of other medicines if needed, based on your blood pressure response. Always follow your doctor's specific prescribed dose rather than adjusting it yourself.

Vytan 160mg Tablet is taken by mouth, generally once daily, and can be swallowed with or without food, ideally with a full glass of water. Try to take it at the same time each day to help you remember, and continue taking it regularly even if you feel well, since blood pressure control often has no noticeable symptoms.

Vytan 160mg Tablet generally remains stable until the expiry date printed on the blister strip and outer packaging when stored correctly and unopened. Always check this date before use and avoid taking any tablet past its expiry.

Each Vytan tablet contains Valsartan 160 mg as the active ingredient, an angiotensin II receptor antagonist that works by blocking the binding of angiotensin II, helping to relax and widen blood vessels.

Known hypersensitivity to valsartan or any other ingredient in the tablet
Pregnancy, as ARBs can cause harm to the developing baby
Severe hepatic impairment, cirrhosis, or biliary obstruction
Severe renal impairment (creatinine clearance below 10 mL/min) or patients undergoing dialysis
Concomitant use of aliskiren-containing medicines in patients with diabetes mellitus or moderate-to-severe kidney impairment
Use with caution in patients with renal artery stenosis, as this may affect kidney function

Potassium-sparing diuretics (such as spironolactone, triamterene, or amiloride), potassium supplements, or potassium-containing salt substitutes may raise blood potassium levels when combined with this medicine
NSAIDs, including aspirin and selective COX-2 inhibitors, may reduce the blood-pressure-lowering effect and worsen kidney function, particularly with regular use
Lithium levels may increase and become more toxic when combined with this medicine, so this combination is generally avoided or closely monitored
Rifampicin, ciclosporin, and ritonavir may increase valsartan levels in the body
Combining with ACE inhibitors or aliskiren may increase the risk of low blood pressure, high potassium, and reduced kidney function, and is contraindicated in certain patient groups
Alcohol may worsen side effects such as dizziness, headache, and nausea, so intake should be limited
Always inform your doctor or pharmacist of all other prescription medicines, over-the-counter products, and supplements you're taking
