What does it do?

Sacubitril/valsartan sodium hydrate is a combination pharmaceutical ingredient developed to improve cardiac function. Sacubitril promotes sodium and fluid excretion in the kidneys and dilates blood vessels, while valsartan lowers blood pressure. Together, these two components work to alleviate symptoms in patients with heart failure.

Sacubitril expands blood vessels and increases sodium excretion in the body, lowering blood pressure and reducing cardiac workload. Valsartan blocks the action of hormones that regulate blood pressure, relaxing blood vessels and lowering blood pressure. These two actions combined reduce the strain on the heart and improve symptoms of heart failure.
