Hi Mary,

Sorry to hear about your experience with this different manufacturer of Losartan. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the following symptoms are listed as possible side effects of Losartan:

-severe or sudden headache
-swelling or puffiness of the face
-lightheadedness, dizziness, fainting
-redness or other discoloration of the skin

If you didn't experience this on the other version of Losartan by Zydus, I would speculate that it may have something to do with the different set of inactive ingredients (binders/fillers) that also make up the composition of the pill.
