• Generic Name: nebivolol / valsartan
• Dosage Forms: tablet, film coated
• Other Brand Names: Byvalson

Byvalson contains a combination of nebivolol and valsartan. Nebivolol is a beta-blocker that affects the heart and circulation (blood flow through arteries and veins).

Valsartan is an angiotensin II receptor antagonist. Valsartan keeps blood vessels from narrowing, which lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow.

Byvalson is used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) in adults. Lowering blood pressure may lower your risk of a stroke or heart attack.

Byvalson is sometimes given together with other blood pressure medications.
