Valsartan/Hydrochlorothiazide Krka combines two medications to manage blood pressure. This combination therapy is prescribed when single-agent treatment is insufficient. It is an oral medication designed for daily use under medical supervision.
What is Valsartan, Hydrochlorothiazide used for?
Valsartan/Hydrochlorothiazide Krka is used to treat high blood pressure, also known as hypertension. It combines an angiotensin II receptor blocker (valsartan) with a diuretic (hydrochlorothiazide) to help lower blood pressure. This combination is often prescribed when blood pressure remains high despite treatment with a single medication. It may also be used to reduce the risk of heart complications in certain patients.
What are the side effects of Valsartan, Hydrochlorothiazide?
This medication works by relaxing blood vessels and removing excess fluid from the body, which helps lower blood pressure. Users may notice improved energy levels and reduced swelling in the legs as blood pressure stabilizes. Some individuals experience mild dizziness or fatigue, especially when starting treatment, which often improves over time.

Keep this medication in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Store it where children and pets cannot access it. Do not use it after the expiration date printed on the packaging. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, unless it is close to the time for your next dose—then skip the missed dose. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions for use.
What does Valsartan, Hydrochlorothiazide interact with?
Valsartan/Hydrochlorothiazide Krka may interact with other medications, including potassium supplements, diuretics, and certain blood pressure drugs. Alcohol and high-sodium foods can reduce its effectiveness. Always inform your doctor about all medications and supplements you are taking to avoid potential interactions. Grapefruit juice may also affect how the medication works in some individuals.
