Losartan tablet

What is this medicine?

LOSARTAN helps lower blood pressure to normal levels. It controls high blood pressure, but it is not a cure. High blood pressure can damage your kidneys, and may lead to a stroke or heart failure. Losartan helps prevent these things from happening. Losartan is also used to improve symptoms in patients with heart failure.

What should my health care professional know before I take this medicine?

They need to know if you have any of these conditions:

  • previous swelling of the tongue, face, or lips with difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, hoarseness, or tightening of the throat
  • heart failure
  • kidney disease
  • liver disease
  • electrolyte imbalance (e.g. low or high levels of potassium in the blood)
  • if you are on a special diet, such as a low-salt diet (e.g. using potassium substitutes)
  • an unusual or allergic reaction to losartan, other medicines, foods, dyes, or preservatives
  • pregnant or trying to get pregnant
  • breast-feeding

How should I take this medicine?

Take losartan tablets by mouth. Swallow the tablets with a drink of water. This medicine can be taken with or without food. Take your doses at regular intervals. Do not take your medicine more often than directed.

What if I miss a dose?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you can. If it is almost time for your next dose, take only that dose. Do not take double or extra doses.

  • antiinflammatory pain medicines such as ibuprofen
  • blood pressure medications

Tell your prescriber or health care professional about all other medicines you are taking, including nonprescription medicines, nutritional supplements, or herbal products. Also tell your prescriber or health care professional if you are a frequent user of drinks with caffeine or alcohol, if you smoke, or if you use illegal drugs. These may affect the way your medicine works. Check with your health care professional before stopping or starting any of your medicines.

What should I watch for while taking this medicine?

Check your blood pressure regularly while you are taking losartan. Ask your prescriber or health care professional what your blood pressure should be and when you should contact him or her. When you check your blood pressure, write down the measurements to show your prescriber or health care professional. If you are taking this medicine for a long time you must visit your prescriber or health care professional for regular checks on your progress. Make sure you schedule appointments on a regular basis.

You may experience dizziness. Do not drive, use machinery, or do anything that requires mental alertness until you know how losartan affects you. To avoid dizziness, do not stand or sit up quickly.

Avoid salt substitutes unless you are told otherwise by your prescriber or health care professional.

If you are going to have surgery tell your prescriber or health care professional that you are taking losartan.
