How It Works

Sacutan 50 Tablet contains two active components: Sacubitril and Valsartan. Sacubitril increases levels of natural substances that relax blood vessels and promote sodium excretion, easing the workload on the heart. Valsartan blocks angiotensin II, a compound that tightens blood vessels, helping to lower blood pressure and reduce heart strain. Together, they support better heart performance and long-term cardiovascular health.
