Frequently asked questions about Valzaar SM Products

Frequently asked questions about Valzaar SM Products

Q. How long does it take for Valzaar SM Capsule to start working?
A substantial decrease in blood pressure can be experienced within 2 weeks of starting Valzaar SM Capsule. The medicine may take up to 4 weeks to show its complete effects. Talk to your doctor in case you have any concerns regarding Valzaar SM Capsule, but do not stop taking it without consulting the doctor.
Q. Which medicine is considered safe for treating high blood pressure?
There are many blood pressure-lowering medicines which can be considered safe. The doctor will advise the exact use of these medicines, keeping various factors such as age, gender, other coexisting diseases, etc. into consideration. Also, the effect of the medicine and response of the patient can vary from person to person. For instance, a person below 55 years of age having no other co-existing disease may be prescribed angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARAs) (e.g., Valzaar SM Capsule, losartan, olmesartan) or Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Inhibitors (e.g., ramipril, captopril or enalapril) by the doctor.
Q. Is Valzaar SM Capsule bad for kidneys?
Valzaar SM Capsule does not generally affect the working of a proper functioning kidney. However, there is limited data to support the safety of patients who have existing severe kidney impairment (creatinine clearance <10 ml/min) and are on dialysis. Hence, Valzaar SM Capsule should be used cautiously in such patients. It should only be used when advised by the doctor.
Q. Who should not be given Valzaar SM Capsule?
Valzaar SM Capsule should not be given to patients who are allergic to it, have severe liver disease, have diabetes, or impaired kidney function. Also, its use should be restricted if you are being treated with blood pressure lowering medicine containing Aliskiren. In addition to that, Valzaar SM Capsule should not be used if you are pregnant or trying to conceive. If you are not sure or have any queries, consult your doctor.
Q. Does Valzaar SM Capsule cause weight gain?
No, Valzaar SM Capsule does not cause weight gain as a side effect. However, if your kidney function deteriorates, your body may swell due to accumulation of water (fluid retention), resulting in weight gain. 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 Valzaar SM Capsule?
Continue taking Valzaar SM 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 lifelong, since Valzaar SM Capsule does not cure high blood pressure or heart failure but controls them.
Q. What is the most important information I should know about Valzaar SM Capsule?
Taking Valzaar SM Capsule during the last months of pregnancy can cause serious harm or even endanger the unborn baby. Therefore, do not take Valzaar SM Capsule if you are pregnant. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. If you become pregnant while taking Valzaar SM Capsule, stop taking Valzaar SM Capsule and call your doctor immediately.
Q. Can I switch in between the brands of Valzaar SM Capsule, since currently the brand I am using is not available?
No, do not switch to a different Valzaar SM Capsule product unless your doctor says that you should. Since you have to take it daily, keep a stock of it. Each Valzaar SM Capsule product releases the medication differently in your body and cannot be used interchangeably. Therefore, if you have any concerns regarding Valzaar SM Capsule, consult your doctor.
