I have been taking losartan for a few months and have hoarseness and feel the need to clear my throat intermittently. It’s not everyday but feels like it’s getting worse. ## I have been given losartan combo with HTZ for several years for Blood Pressure. At age 70 voice was suddenly barely there. At 72 I see no hope of regaining voice. Run to a good ENT DOCTOR who will look at your throat and vocal chords. Determine soon reason for throat issue. Medical professionals are not quick to blame a medicine that has been perscribed for you. However at least locate possible cause & treatment before you lose voice. ## Losartan has been known to cause dry mouth, dry throat, and a cough, as possible side effects, along with nausea, dizziness, and frequent urination. Once it gets lik...

I have been on Lotrel (10/20) for several years and have experienced several side effects - mostly mild but in combination - I finally decided it was time to re- evaluate and consider other options. The side effects were numbness and tingling in the feet, dry mouth and jittery for 6 hours post dosing, bad taste and significant change in taste, nocturia, occasional dizziness and weight gain... The doctor prescribed Losartan 100mg. As this is he same class as one of my drugs on Lotrel, it seems counter-intuitive to put me on this drug. When I posed the question the doc said well you will have to deal wi other side effects with other antihypertensives. I also asked if my high BP was level 1 why was she not putting me on the 50mg dose - to mitigate side effects - and she said because my Lot...

I have jAFib with accompanying shortness of breath and since taking Losartan 25 mg daily, the SOB has been much worse, I cannot walk 100 feet without having to stop and catch my breath. I also take Atenolol for low blood pressure. Can I stop the Losartan abruptly without any consequences? ## Hello, Joan! How are you? It would be best to consult your doctor and follow their instructions. It could be that your blood pressure is going too low, so you may need to adjust the dosage of one of these medications, or stop taking it. Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and increased urination. Is there anything else I can help with?

Can i take cheratussin ac syrup with losartan htc 100 ## Hello, Jackie! How are you? I don't find any interactions or problems listed between them, but it's always best to double check such information to be sure. Has your doctor prescribed both? The FDA classified Cheratussin AC as a narcotic cough suppressant, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Losartan is classified as an ARB that is most commonly used to treat high blood pressure and certain cardiac conditions. Its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, increase urination and hypotension.

I didn't find any problems or interactions listed between these two medications, so that should be fine, as long as your doctor approves.

My first time taking it, it made me nauseous and tired with diarrhea. I went to my dr to find out that I had a hole in my stomach and bleeding. Could this have been caused by 10/325 Norco? ## How long were you taking it? That is not an issue that would normally occur with just short term use. Generally, it takes awhile for an ulcer to develop, according to NIH reports. Do you drink a lot of alcohol? Are you taking any other medications regularly? The FDA warns that Norco carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, constipation, and dry mouth. ## I took it one time but my other meds were Coumadin and lisinopril losartan
