Is There An Alternate Medicine Equally Effective As Diovan?

Due to my insurance no longer cover Diovan 80mg, I am going to have to find a replacement for this drug. Can you suggest a similar drug that isn t so costly but has the same effects? I am really worried about this because I have been using this drug for about 16 years. I have never had any problems with it besides the cough occasionally. I hate having to go through shopping for another drug that may make me feel awful like the ones before diovan.
