Get a valsartan HCTZ prescription online for high blood pressure

Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ) is a prescription medication used to treat high blood pressure. This medication is a combination of two active ingredients, valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide. Valsartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (which relaxes blood vessels) and hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic (which helps the body to get rid of excess salt and water).

High blood pressure is a dangerous – potentially fatal – condition in which the heart is met with too much resistance from blocked or narrowed arteries as it tries to pump blood and oxygen around your body. When not treated, high blood pressure can lead to an array of serious health issues including heart attack, heart failure, stroke, and many more complications. Nearly half of Americans have high blood pressure, and heart disease is the leading cause of death of people in the United States.

While adverse reactions to Valsartan/HCTZ are uncommon, some patients who take the drug may experience mild side effects. The most common adverse effects of Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide are dizziness or lightheadedness. These are normally mild and usually go away as your body adjusts to the medication. Let your doctor know you experience any severe side effects or if these don’t go away. This medication can cause a loss of too much body water and electrolytes. Some symptoms of dehydration or mineral loss include extreme thirst, muscle cramps or weakness, very dry mouth, changes to your heartbeat, or confusion. Talk to your doctor right away if you experience any of these symptoms.

A very serious reaction is rare but can occur. Get immediate medical attention if you experience fainting, a decrease in vision, eye pain, symptoms of high potassium levels (muscle weakness or irregular heartbeat), signs of kidney problems or an allergic reaction (such as rash, hives, itching, swelling, difficulty breathing or swallowing).

Talk to your doctor about your medical history - particularly if you have or have had kidney or liver disease, lupus, gout, or skin cancer. Inform your doctor of all known allergies and of all medications and supplements that you take. Tell your doctor if you are pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.

The diuretic effects from the hydrochlorothiazide should begin in about 2 hours, peak in 4 hours, and will last for 6 to 12 hours. Valsartan starts to work towards reducing high blood pressure within 4 to 6 hours. You may need to take these medicines consistently for 2 to 4 weeks for full effect.

You should continue taking Valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide even if you feel well. High blood pressure often does not have any symptoms and you may not notice a difference in how you feel even if the medicine is achieving the desired effect. Do not stop taking your medicine without consulting your doctor.
