Brief Summary: This proof-of-concept, open-label non-randomized clinical trial was conducted at a tertiary care cardiac center in Karachi, Pakistan. Patients with HFrEF were prescribed Sacubitril/Valsartan and followed for 12 weeks for the assessment of safety and tolerability. Safety measures included incidence of hypotension, renal dysfunction, hyperkalemia, and angioedema
Detailed Description: A required number of consecutive patients meeting the inclusion criteria were recruited for this study. After written informed consent patient demographic and baseline clinical characteristics were obtained. Inclusion criteria for the study were either gender between 18 to 80 years of age, diagnosed with congestive heart failure (CHF) with NYHA class II-IV, and LVEF ≤ 40%. Pre-inclusion safety parameters were patients who were stable on any dose of beta-blockers, angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) prior to enrolment in the study. Patients with a baseline diagnosis of Hyperkalemia, hypotension, renal dysfunction, and a history of hypersensitivity to the active substances, Sacubitril/Valsartan, or to any of the excipients or drugs of similar chemical classes were excluded from the study.

All the recruited patients were prescribed Sacubitril/Valsartan 100mg/200mg twice a day (BID) for 6 weeks. A weekly telephonic follow-up was made to assess the patient's medication adherence level using the Dose-Nonadherence scale. All the patients were kept under a close follow-up for 6 weeks period and at the end of 12 weeks of medication, the safety and tolerability outcomes were assessed as per the operational definition.
