Diovan (Valsartan) Information

Diovan, which contains the active ingredient valsartan, is an Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB). It is primarily indicated for the treatment of hypertension (high blood pressure), used either alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents. Diovan is also indicated for the treatment of heart failure (NYHA class II-IV) and to reduce cardiovascular mortality and morbidity in stable patients with left ventricular failure or dysfunction following a myocardial infarction (heart attack). Valsartan is administered orally, typically once or twice daily.

The mechanism of action for valsartan involves blocking the potent vasoconstrictor hormone Angiotensin II. Angiotensin II causes narrowing of blood vessels (vasoconstriction) and stimulates the release of aldosterone, which causes the body to retain sodium and water. Valsartan works by selectively blocking the binding of Angiotensin II to the AT1 receptor found in vascular smooth muscle, the kidney, and the adrenal glands. Valsartan is an active drug that does not require metabolic activation. By blocking the AT1 receptor, valsartan counteracts Angiotensin II's effects: it promotes vasodilation (widening of blood vessels). It inhibits aldosterone secretion, promoting the excretion of sodium and water. These combined actions result in a sustained reduction in blood pressure and a reduction in morbidity and mortality in post-myocardial infarction and heart failure patients. Unlike ACE inhibitors, valsartan has a very low incidence of cough.
