文摘1 Introduction Sacubitril/valsartan(SV)is a first in class dual action molecule of the neprilysin(NEP)inhibitor prodrug sacubitril(AHU377)and the angiotensin II receptor(Ang-II)type 1 antagonist valsartanJ11 It is the first angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor(ARNI)whose pharmacodynamic effects are consistent with a simultaneous stimulation of the natriuretic peptides system(via NEP inhibition)and the blockade of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system(valsartan effect)that finally results in systemic vasodilation,increased diuresis and natriuresis,reduction of plasmatic volume and diminution of peripheral vascular resistance.
