Could Pain In The Right Forearm Be Caused After Suddenly Stopping Entresto Cold Turkey?
My husband has chronic heart failure and is taking entresto for his condition. On Friday the 12th he took his last entresto pill because his Dr. failed to call in a refill for his Rx. Now he is experiencing pain in the forearm of his right arm. Could this be caused if one suddenly stops taking entresto?

Hi,
Withdrawal of Entresto can cause high blood pressure, if anti-hypertensive are not being taken. Low sodium, potassium levels can lead to muscular pains. Please get your prescription refilled earliest and start with the medicine that helping you.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
