Product Overview

In addition to its role in blood pressure management, valsartan demonstrates significant benefits in combating oxidative stress and protein glycation. Studies show that it lowers oxidative markers like advanced oxidation protein products (AOPP) and improves albumin antioxidant capacity. Valsartan’s ability to reduce AGE accumulation prevents endothelial dysfunction and arterial stiffness, both key contributors to cardiovascular complications. These effects are comparable to established antioxidants, such as lipoic acid and N-acetylcysteine. This highlights valsartan’s potential as a comprehensive therapy for cardiovascular and metabolic health.

What makes valsartan different from ACE inhibitors?
Valsartan blocks the AT1 receptor directly, while ACE inhibitors prevent angiotensin II formation. Valsartan lacks side effects like cough that are common with ACE inhibitors.

What is valsartan’s role in nephroprotection?
Valsartan has been shown to reduce albuminuria and protect kidney function in patients with diabetes and chronic kidney disease.
