Valsartan FAQ

What specific birth defects can be caused by Valsartan (Diovan)?

The package insert says it can cause birth defects but doesn't say what kind of defects. Does it cause heart problems? Does it cause something less severe? What medication can replace it if a wonam wants to have a child?

I'm keen to know please and would thank you kindly for your time. Dee you don't get any tingling hands fingers or toes with this drug then?

I need someone who is well-versed in medications to answer this question. Thanks in advance.
