At the outset, it should be noted that Valsartan and Eliquis are prescription drugs, so the appropriateness and need for their concomitant use should be determined by your doctor. So please follow your doctor's instructions. As a pharmacist, I can only give you general information:
There are no contraindications to the simultaneous use of the drugs mentioned in the question. However, it is better to spread the use of the preparations over time, so as not to overload the liver by metabolizing drugs at the same time.
Valsartan: Can be taken with or without food. The tablets should be taken orally with water. You can split them in half if desired. The exact dosage of the drug depends on the age of the patient and the reason for administering the drug. Long-term use can increase zinc excretion and lead to deficiency.

Eliquis: This medicine can be taken with or without food. In people who have trouble swallowing the whole tablet, you can crush the tablet and dissolve it in water, and then drink the suspension prepared in this way. The exact dosage of Eliquis is determined by your doctor, based on the reported symptoms, the cause and the patient's individual situation.
