Cross talk on therapeutic strategies: natriuretic peptides and inhibiting neprilysin in hypertension management.

Hypertension, a prevalent cardiovascular condition globally, remains a significant public health concern due to its association with increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Despite the availability of various antihypertensive therapies, achieving optimal blood pressure control in patients remains a challenge. Valsartan/sacubitril (ARNi), marketed as Entresto by Novartis, combines valsartan, an angiotensin receptor blocker, with sacubitril, an inhibitor of neprilysin.
