What Diovan HCT® Is and How It Works

Diovan HCT® combines valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide to treat high blood pressure in adults. It is a once-daily tablet offered in several strengths, including 80/12.5 mg, 160/12.5 mg, 160/25 mg, 320/12.5 mg, and 320/25 mg. Many people compare the diovan hct price and diovan hct cost when they buy diovan hct online to meet their budget and therapy needs.

Youdrugstore, a licensed Canadian pharmacy based in Manitoba, reviews every prescription by a licensed pharmacist before dispensing and offers brand and generic medicines at Canadian prices, plus OTC items, with online ordering and chat during posted hours.

We also partner with licensed, vetted international pharmacies to provide authentic brands and a wide selection at affordable pricing.

Valsartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB). It relaxes blood vessels by blocking angiotensin II. Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic that helps your body remove extra salt and water. Together, they reduce blood volume and vessel tension to lower blood pressure.

Diovan HCT® is indicated for hypertension management. It may help patients not adequately controlled on valsartan or hydrochlorothiazide alone. The fixed-dose combination offers convenience and steady control with a once-daily regimen.

This product is supplied as film-coated diovan hct tabs. A valsartan hydrochlorothiazide generic option also exists. Your prescriber selects a strength that matches your previous therapy and blood pressure goals.

Dosage and Usage

  • Typical starting doses include 80/12.5 mg or 160/12.5 mg once daily, especially when stepping up from one agent alone.
  • Titrate at 1–2 week intervals based on blood pressure response; common maintenance options include diovan hct 160 25 mg or 320/12.5 mg.
  • The maximum approved strength is diovan hct 320 25 mg once daily.
  • Take at the same time each day, with or without food.
  • Swallow tablets whole. Do not crush or chew.
  • If switching from valsartan or hydrochlorothiazide alone, select the nearest combined dose per your prescriber.
  • If you miss a dose, take it when remembered unless it is close to the next dose. Do not double doses.
  • Keep regular monitoring of blood pressure and lab values as directed by your care team.
  • Store at 20–25 °C (68–77 °F); short excursions 15–30 °C (59–86 °F) are acceptable.
  • Protect from moisture and light. Keep tablets in the original bottle.
  • Do not store in the bathroom. Close the cap tightly after each use.
  • When traveling, keep your medication in your carry-on with the labeled pharmacy bottle.
  • Bring enough for your trip plus a few extra days, and keep a current medication list with you.
  • Take your dose at the same local time each day as you adjust to time zones.

Benefits and Savings

Diovan HCT® addresses two mechanisms in one tablet. The ARB component targets the renin-angiotensin system, and the thiazide reduces fluid retention. This dual action often yields greater pressure reductions than either agent alone. The once-daily schedule is convenient and supports adherence.

Flexible strengths such as diovan hct 80 12.5 mg, diovan hct 160 mg 12.5 mg, and diovan hct 320 mg 25 mg help match a wide range of needs. Your prescriber can titrate to achieve target control. Patients who need higher ARB exposure may advance to diovan hct 160 or 320 mg with 12.5 or 25 mg of hydrochlorothiazide.

Ordering from Canada can lower the diovan hct price. Many customers save 60–80% versus typical U.S. prices when they buy maintenance medicines through our pharmacy. Multi-month supplies can reduce the per-month cost, and you can set simple reorder reminders in your account.

Side Effects and Safety

  • Dizziness or lightheadedness, especially when starting or after dose increases
  • Headache, fatigue, or weakness
  • Increased urination
  • Nausea, stomach upset, or diarrhea
  • Low blood pressure (hypotension), particularly in dehydrated patients
  • Electrolyte changes (low sodium, low potassium from hydrochlorothiazide; occasional high potassium with valsartan)
  • Skin sensitivity to sunlight
  • Gout flare or increased uric acid
  • Back or joint pain; muscle cramps

Serious but less common risks include kidney problems, severe electrolyte imbalance, eye pain or vision changes (rare, acute angle-closure event), and angioedema (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat). Avoid use in pregnancy due to fetal toxicity risk. Do not use with aliskiren in patients with diabetes. NSAIDs may reduce the antihypertensive effect, and lithium levels may rise with concomitant use.

Onset Time

Hydrochlorothiazide increases urine output within hours of the first dose. Blood pressure lowering typically begins within the first week for most patients. A steady response is often seen by about 2 to 4 weeks.

If your prescriber adjusts the strength, expect another 2 to 4 weeks to assess the new level. Consistent daily use and routine monitoring support a stable response.

Compare With Alternatives

Generic valsartan/hydrochlorothiazide offers the same active ingredients and strengths as the brand. Many choose the generic to lower the diovan hct cost while maintaining similar control. You can review the generic option here: Valsartan Hct.

Patients who do not need a diuretic may use an ARB alone. Valsartan monotherapy can be a suitable option in certain cases, and brand valsartan is available here: Diovan®. Others may use a different ARB/thiazide pair (such as losartan/HCTZ) or add a calcium channel blocker like amlodipine when further reduction is needed.

Combination Therapy

  • With a calcium channel blocker (e.g., amlodipine) for added control; adjust doses to reduce dizziness or hypotension.
  • With a beta-blocker when indicated for comorbid conditions; monitor heart rate and blood pressure closely.
  • Avoid routine use with potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretics unless supervised; monitor potassium and kidney function.
  • Do not combine with aliskiren in patients with diabetes; avoid in kidney impairment where contraindicated.
  • If adding other antihypertensives, consider stepwise titration to limit side effects.

Patient Suitability and Cost-Saving Tips

Diovan HCT® suits adults who need an ARB plus thiazide to reach blood pressure targets. It is not recommended in anuria or severe kidney impairment. Thiazides may be less effective in advanced renal dysfunction. Use caution in patients with gout, low sodium, or a history of sulfonamide hypersensitivity.

Diovan HCT® should not be used during pregnancy. Discuss plans for pregnancy with your prescriber to select an alternative. Breastfeeding considerations vary; your clinician will advise on risks and options. Patients with liver disease or bilateral renal artery stenosis need careful monitoring.

To save on ongoing therapy, consider the valsartan hydrochlorothiazide generic. Ordering a 90-day supply can lower your per-month outlay. Watch for bulk promotions posted on our site, and set simple reorder reminders so you never run short. You can manage your refills online or by phone during office hours.
