How to remove character from fixed String

I have a value like

V = "Val1,Val2;Val3"

In this case If I need to separate "Val1,Val2" from V I am using this

var newVal = V.substr(0, V.indexOf(";"));

But this case is faling for some value like this

V = "Val4;Val1,Val2;Val3"

Any idea how to take only the value which having "," and remove all other character which is separated by ";"

Use \w+(?=,) regex to get all those values

use the regex 

\w+,\w+

to solve this

function match(str){
    return str.match(/\w+,\w+/g);
}

console.log(match('a;b,c;d'));
console.log(match('a,b;c'));
