Overview

Entresto is a heart medicine used in adults with chronic (long-term) heart failure who have symptoms of the disease and reduced ejection fraction (a measure of how well the heart pumps blood). The medicine is also used in adolescents and children from 1 year of age with chronic heart failure who have symptoms of the disease and left ventricular systolic dysfunction (a problem affecting the left side of the heart).

Heart failure is the inability of the heart to pump enough blood around the body.

Entresto contains the active substances sacubitril and valsartan.
