How It Works
Losartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a hormone that narrows blood vessels. This leads to relaxation and widening of blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and reducing strain on the heart and kidneys.

The usual starting dose is 50mg once daily. Your doctor may adjust the dose based on your response and condition. Take Losargen at the same time each day, with or without food.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include dizziness, headache, and fatigue. Most side effects are mild and often improve over time. Unlike ACE inhibitors, Losartan rarely causes a dry cough. Contact your doctor if side effects persist or worsen.

Do not use during pregnancy as it can harm the unborn baby. Use with caution in patients with severe liver disease. Inform your doctor of any allergies or medical conditions before starting treatment.
