Valzaar 160 mg

🌟 Introduction to Valzaar 160 mg (Valsartan)

Valzaar 160 mg by Torrent Pharmaceuticals is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) prescribed for hypertension, heart failure, and post-heart attack care. Valsartan blocks angiotensin II receptors, dilating blood vessels and reducing blood pressure. Studies show it lowers systolic BP by 10–20 mmHg and cuts hospitalization risk in heart failure patients by 30%. Torrent’s WHO-GMP-certified tablets offer a cost-effective alternative to Diovan, trusted by cardiologists globally.
