Product Description

Product Name: Nuval-D Tablets 80mg/12.5mg 

Product Form: Tablets

Pack Size: 14's

Manufactured By: PharmEvo

Used For:

  • Hypertension (High Blood Pressure): This combination helps to lower blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications like stroke, heart attack, and kidney damage.
    • Valsartan relaxes blood vessels, which lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow.
    • Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic (water pill) that helps reduce blood volume by increasing the excretion of sodium and water, which further aids in lowering blood pressure.

Side Effects:

  • Common Side Effects: Dizziness, headache, fatigue, and lightheadedness (especially when starting treatment or adjusting doses).
  • Electrolyte Imbalance: HCTZ can lead to imbalances in potassium, sodium, and magnesium, potentially causing symptoms like muscle cramps, weakness, or irregular heartbeats.
  • Serious Side Effects: Rarely, it may cause angioedema (swelling of the face, lips, or throat), kidney impairment, or severe hypotension.

Precautions:

  • Kidney and Liver Function: This combination may affect kidney and liver function; regular monitoring is recommended for patients with preexisting conditions.
  • Electrolyte Monitoring: Regular blood tests to monitor potassium and sodium levels are often advised, especially for patients on potassium supplements or with conditions that may alter electrolyte balance.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Valsartan is contraindicated in pregnancy due to risks to the fetus. Breastfeeding while on this combination is not recommended unless advised by a healthcare provider.
  • Photosensitivity: Hydrochlorothiazide can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight; using sun protection is advisable.
