Frequently asked questions about Valsartan

Q. How long does it take for Starval 160mg Capsule to start working?
A substantial decrease in blood pressure can be experienced within 2 weeks of starting Starval 160mg Capsule. The medicine may take up to 4 weeks to show its complete effects.
Q. Which medicine is considered safe for treating high blood pressure?
There are many blood pressure-lowering medicines which can be considered safe. Use of these medicines varies from person to person and can be based on various factors such as age, gender, other co-existing diseases, etc. For instance, a person below 55 years of age having no other coexisting disease may be prescribed angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARAs) (e.g., Starval 160mg Capsule, losartan, olmesartan) or Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors (e.g., ramipril, captopril, or enalapril) by the doctor.
Q. Is Starval 160mg Capsule bad for kidneys?
Starval 160mg Capsule does not generally affect the working of a proper functioning kidney. However, it should be cautiously used in patients who have existing severe kidney impairment (creatinine clearance <10 ml/min) and are on dialysis as there is limited data to support the safety of these patients.
Q. Who should not be given Starval 160mg Capsule?
Starval 160mg Capsule should not be given to patients who are allergic to it, have severe liver disease, have diabetes, or impaired kidney function. Its use should be restricted if you are being treated with blood pressure lowering medicine containing aliskiren. It is important to know that a pregnant lady or one who intends to become pregnant should not use Starval 160mg Capsule.
Q. What class of medicine is Starval 160mg Capsule?
Starval 160mg Capsule belongs to a group of medicines called angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARAs). Angiotensin II is a substance in the body that causes vessels to tighten which leads to increase in blood pressure. Starval 160mg Capsule works by blocking the effect of angiotensin II. As a result, blood vessels relax and blood pressure is lowered.
Q. Does Starval 160mg Capsule cause weight gain?
No, Starval 160mg Capsule does not cause weight gain as a side effect. However, if your kidney function deteriorates, then your body may swell due to accumulation of water (fluid retention) because of which you may gain weight. Inform your doctor if you experience any unexplained weight gain or swelling in your feet, ankles, or hands.
Q. How long do I need to take Starval 160mg Capsule?
Continue taking Starval 160mg Capsule as long as your doctor has prescribed. Do not stop taking it even if you start feeling better. You may even have to take it life long, since Starval 160mg Capsule does not cure high blood pressure or heart failure but controls them.
Q. What is the most important information I should know about Starval 160mg Capsule?
Taking Starval 160mg Capsule during the last months of pregnancy can cause serious harm or even death of the unborn baby. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. Do not take Starval 160mg Capsule if you are pregnant. If you become pregnant while taking Starval 160mg Capsule, stop taking Starval 160mg Capsule and call your doctor immediately.
Q. Can I switch in between the brands of Starval 160mg Capsule, since currently the brand I am using is not available?
No, do not switch to a different Starval 160mg Capsule product unless your doctor says that you should. Since you have to take it daily, keep a stock of it. Each Starval 160mg Capsule product releases the medication differently in your body and cannot be used interchangeably.
