Patient summary
Sacubitril with valsartan as a film-coated tablet, used in the management of chronic heart failure. A neprilysin inhibitor combined with a sartan.
Mechanism of action
Entresto is a unique combination treatment for chronic heart failure. It works by increasing protective hormones that promote blood vessel relaxation and salt-water excretion, while simultaneously inhibiting an enzyme that would otherwise counteract these positive effects, thus reducing strain on the deteriorating heart muscle.
Entresto combines sacubitril and valsartan to assist in the management of chronic heart failure. Novartis manufactures this medication to help improve cardiac function and reduce the risk of hospitalisation. Tablets are available in the 97/103mg strength, providing a standard dose for long-term health maintenance.
