Issues with Entresto

[Jishuang44]

I have dilated cardiomyopathy but also associated with it, AF and heart failure. I have just been started on Entresto as an alternative to Ramipiril (which I had been on stably for 6 months). Since starting on the Entresto I have had continual very unpleasant lip tingling and my lower face has felt (but doesn’t look) stiff and swollen.

I don’t think I can face remaining on Entresto if this is what I have to put up with all the time. What have other people’s experiences of it been? Anyone else have lip tingling etc and did it eventually go?

I’ve been on Entresto for 7 months and haven’t had any side effects at all. It is meant to be the best drug for improving your heart.

I have been on Entresto for the last 10 months with no side effects. What does your doctor think about your side effect in this case? I think you should discuss with your medics in case it’s something else causing your problem. Hope you get it resolved.
