Co-Diovan 160mg/12.5mg combines valsartan (160mg) and hydrochlorothiazide (12.5mg) in a single tablet. This dual-action antihypertensive medication effectively manages high blood pressure through complementary mechanisms, offering comprehensive cardiovascular protection.

Uses

Co-Diovan is primarily prescribed for treating essential hypertension in adults where blood pressure is not adequately controlled by monotherapy. It’s particularly effective for patients requiring combination therapy for optimal blood pressure management.

Benefits

  • Provides dual mechanism blood pressure control
  • Offers effective 24-hour blood pressure management
  • Reduces risk of cardiovascular complications
  • Improves overall cardiovascular health
  • Shows excellent tolerability profile
  • Convenient once-daily dosing
  • Demonstrates consistent blood pressure reduction
  • Supports better patient compliance

How It Works

The medication works through two complementary mechanisms: valsartan blocks angiotensin II receptors, reducing blood vessel constriction, while hydrochlorothiazide increases water and sodium excretion, lowering blood volume and pressure.

Duration of Action

Blood pressure reduction typically begins within 2 weeks, with maximum effects achieved within 4-6 weeks of consistent use. The 24-hour coverage ensures sustained blood pressure control with once-daily dosing.

Dosage

Standard Adult One tablet once daily Two tablets once daily
Elderly One tablet once daily As directed by physician

Common effects may include mild dizziness, fatigue, and electrolyte changes. More serious side effects like severe dizziness, fainting, or significant electrolyte imbalances require immediate medical attention.

Warning

Seek immediate medical care if experiencing severe dizziness, fainting, rapid or irregular heartbeat, severe dehydration, or unusual muscle weakness. Monitor blood pressure regularly during treatment.
