In this study, the curative effect of valsartan on hypertension based on its effect on visfatin levels and lipid profiles was investigated. Materials and methods: Forty patients aged 38-60 with hypertension were included in the study. In order to determine initial visfatin levels and lipid profiles, blood samples were taken from the patients and all were started on 80-mg valsartan tablets. All patients were monitored for 12 weeks. Results: By using multivariate regression analysis, it was determined that visfatin levels affected systolic blood pressure (SBP) (P = 0.012, beta; -0.43, 95% CI: -0.092 to -0.012). After the patients received the valsartan treatment for 12 weeks, a significant increase in visfatin levels was observed (pre- and posttreatment, respectively: 0.42 ± 0.22 ng/mL and 0.71 ± 0.36 ng/mL, P < 0.001). When the lipid profile changes of patients were examined, only low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels showed a statistically significant change (pre- and posttreatment, respectively: 150.32 ± 13.22 mg/dL and 143.82 ± 7.53 mg/dL, P = 0.008). Conclusion: In this study, it was found that visfatin levels affected SBP in newly diagnosed hypertensive patients and valsartan treatment increased visfatin levels. In addition, the use of valsartan reduced LDL levels.
