Just found out that I am pregnant and I've been taking losartan. My pharmacist said to stop taking it immediately because of risks!!! Will everything be ok? I'm estimating I'm about 4-6 weeks pregnant, but I don't go in for an ultrasound for 2 more weeks!

You should speak to your PCP about switching to a different medication. Labetalol is one that is considered safe to take during pregnancy, but the final decision is between you and your doctor. But it's something you can ask them about.
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension.
Congratulations on the baby! Are you on any other medications?
