I was switched from Losartan to Valsartan because my BP was a little high. I have no issues with it. What does your primary doctor say? Maybe see a cardiologist?

I take 160 Valsartan and no chest pain. You should go to a cardiologist immediately or even back to the ER.

Of course you should see a cardiologist.

@lois1128 I have taken valsartan for more than 15 years. It has been a good medication to help with blood pressure. I agree with the others, you should see a doctor right away. Chest pain is concerning.
