The Diovan contains the active ingredient Valsartan, which is an ARB, while the Metoprolol is beta blocker and it usually takes a lower dose of it to achieve the same results.

They both carry the risks of very similar side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, stomach pain and headache.

They both are used to treat high blood pressure, but are different types of medications and work differently.

Why has your doctor suggested the switch?
