I have been taking this drug every morning for several years now and my blood pressure is under control. Is it possible it is causing me to be quite lethargic 3 to 4 hours later or do I mark it up to my 76 years. Thanks ## It is very hard to say what might be causing it, in this case. Yes, it could be the medication itself, it could be age related, it could be your blood pressure going to low or several other health problems. Have you consulted your doctor about it? The highest possibility is probably age related, because you are going to be more sensitive to medications like this, so it may be making it drop a little too low. Doctors usually have to watch for this and make sure that they adjust your medication accordingly. Learn more:

My mother takes losartan 25 mg, but her last Rx was filled with a white round pill, with a D on one side and 572 on the other side. She said it gives her a severe headache. Could this be an Rx filling error? ## The pill with a logo and the number 572 on the opposite side does contain 25mgs of Losartan, an ARB that is commonly used to help control high blood pressure. Has her blood pressure been checked, since she started taking these tablets? There can be differences in generic medications, the FDA does allow them to differ in the active ingredient by as much as plus or minus 20%, they consider this an acceptable therapeutic window. For most people, the difference has no effect, but some people are very sensitive to medications and can suffer problems with the slightest fluctuation of t...

my insurance company would not pay any longer for my hypertension medicine losartan hctz 100-25 mg tabs and put me on a tab supposed to be the same but made by a company lupin.

I have been taking amslovasc for a few weeks now for high blood pressure and have been suffering terrible headaches and neck stiffness. Is this normal ## in future i will message ## Amlovasc contains the active ingredient Amlodipine, it is a calcium channel blocker that is commonly used to control high blood pressure. You should contact your doctor, about trying something else.

You will probably need to switch to another medication. Are there any questions or comments?

body muscle cramps ## Metoprolol is a medication that is used to treat diseases of the cardiovascular system, most commonly high blood pressure. And yes, not only from the medication information, but from personal experience, I can tell you that it can cause those symptoms. They are, however, considered serious reactions that you should not tolerate, along with any stomach pain and hair loss, you should contact your doctor immediately. Have you called them, yet? You will probably require a switch to a different medication. If the Metoprolol has been working for you, otherwise, there is another in the same class that is known to cause very few side effects. It is what I switched to and, even at a higher dosage, I have had no problems using it and I was found to be extremely sensitive to ...
