Precautions:
-
Regular Monitoring:
- Blood pressure and kidney function should be monitored to ensure the medication is working effectively and does not cause any adverse effects on the kidneys.
-
Electrolyte Levels:
- Periodic blood tests may be recommended to check potassium levels, as valsartan can increase potassium.
-
Avoid Dehydration:
- Drinking adequate water is essential to avoid dehydration, which can cause low blood pressure. Follow your doctor’s advice on fluid intake.
-
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:
- This medication is not recommended during pregnancy, especially in the second and third trimesters, as valsartan may harm the developing fetus. Consult your doctor for alternative medications if you are pregnant or planning pregnancy.
-
Limit Alcohol Intake:
- Alcohol can amplify the blood pressure-lowering effects and increase the risk of dizziness or fainting.
-
Avoid Excessive Heat and Sweating:
- Excessive heat can worsen dehydration and low blood pressure symptoms, so it’s best to stay cool and hydrated.
-
Kidney or Liver Impairment:
- Use cautiously if you have any existing kidney or liver conditions.
