Introduction

Nepitan is a combination medicine used to treat heart failure. It reduces the risk of hospitalization and death due to long-lasting (chronic) heart failure. Nepitan can be taken with or without food but is best taken at the same time(s) each day. Swallow it as a whole with water. Your dose, and how often you take it, will be decided by your doctor and may change depending on how well you respond to the medicine. Keep taking the tablets regularly, as they have been prescribed, and try not to miss doses to get the most benefit. Do not stop taking them, even if you are feeling well. These tablets are preventing future harm. Some of the common side effects include cough, dizziness and feeling lightheaded. To reduce the risk of dizziness, try getting up slowly from a sitting or lying position. If these or other side effects are severe or do not go away, tell your doctor. Serious side effects are rare. Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you are taking any other medicines for blood pressure or heart conditions or if you have kidney or liver disease. Also let your doctor know all other medications you are using as they may affect, or be affected by, this medicine.

How Nepitan works

Nepitan is a combination of two medicines: Sacubitril and Valsartan which belong to a class of angiotensin receptor neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI). This combination treats heart failure by relaxing the blood vessels and making it easier for your heart to pump blood throughout your body. In addition, it also helps your body retain less water.

Quick Tips

  • You should continue to stay active (light walking, stretching) and eat a healthy, low sodium diet along with taking this medication.
  • To reduce the chances of feeling dizzy, rise slowly if you have been sitting or lying down.
  • It may cause the level of potassium in your blood to go up. Avoid taking potassium supplements and potassium-rich foods such as banana and broccoli.
  • Inform your doctor if you have a history of liver or kidney diseases.
  • Do not take Nepitan if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

Brief Description

Indication

Heart Failure,

Administration

May take with or without food

Adult Dose

Heart Failure Indicated to reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and hospitalization for heart failure (HF) in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) (NYHA class II-IV) and reduced ejection fraction Recommended starting dose: 49 mg/51 mg PO BID Target maintenance dose: After 2-4 weeks, double the dose to the target maintenance dose of 97 mg/103 mg PO BID as tolerated Hepatic impairment Mild (Child-Pugh A): No starting dose adjustment required Moderate (Child-Pugh B): Reduce starting dose to 24 mg/26 mg BID; double the dose every 2-4 weeks to target maintenance dose of 97 mg/103 mg BID as tolerated Severe (Child-Pugh C): Not recommended

Renal Dose

Renal impairment Mild-to-moderate (eGFR ?30 mL/min/1.73 m²): No starting dose adjustment required Severe (eGFR <30 mL/min/1.73 m²): Reduce starting dose to 24 mg/26 mg BID; double the dose every 2-4 weeks to target maintenance dose of 97 mg/103 mg BID as tolerated

Contraindication

Hypersensitivity to any component History of angioedema related to previous ACE inhibitor or ARB therapy Coadministration of neprilysin inhibitors (eg, sacubitril) with ACE inhibitors may increase angioedema risk; do not administer ACE inhibitors within 36 hr of switching to or from sacubitril/valsartan Concomitant use with aliskiren in patients with diabetes

Mode of Action

Combination is an angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNi) Sacubitril: Neprilysin inhibitor; neprilysin is responsible for degradation of atrial and brain natriuretic peptide; the cardiovascular and renal effects of sacubitril’s active metabolite (LBQ657) in heart failure are attributed to the increased levels of peptides that are degraded by neprilysin (eg, natriuretic peptide); administration results in increased natriuresis, increased urine cGMP, and decreased plasma MR-proANP and NT-proBNP Valsartan: Angiotensin II receptor type I inhibitor; decreases blood pressure and blocks vasoconstrictor and aldosterone-secreting effects of angiotensin II

Precaution

Can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman; use of drugs that act on the renin-angiotensin system during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy reduces fetal renal function and increases fetal and neonatal morbidity and death (see Black Box Warnings) Observe for signs and symptoms of angioedema; if angioedema occurs, discontinue drug immediately, provide appropriate therapy, and monitor for airway compromise Sacubitril/valsartan lowers blood pressure and may cause symptomatic hypotension; patients who are volume-depleted or salt-depleted, or those taking diuretics, are at greater risk Monitor renal function and potassium levels in susceptible patients (eg, diabetes, hypoaldosteronism, high-potassium diet, renal artery stenosis); dosage reduction or interruption may be required

Side Effect

>10% Hypotension (18%) Hyperkalemia (12%) 1-10% Cough (9%) Dizziness (6%) Orthostasis (2.1%) Falls (1.9%) <1% Angioedema, all patients (0.5%); in black patients (2.4%)
