I have a small oval white pill with a z on one side and a 2 on the other side,and can't identify this prescription. ## Hi Karen, Based on the description provided, I've identified your white oval pill with "Z" on one side and "2" on the other, to be Losartan potassium (25 mg); which is used to help treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions. For verification: It is manufactured by Zydus Pharmaceuticals, and the National Drug Code (NDC) is: 68382-0135 Learn More: Losartan Details I hope this helps! ## Thank you so much David. This clarified the question I had, since the new prescription was a different shape from the last prescription. Karen

However, there are several oval, yellow tablets on the market that contain this dosage of Losartan and Hydrochlorthiazide. Some of the markings are: 93 7368 (The 93 may have been changed to the word TEVA) APO 100 25 M43 LU E 49 and there are several others.

I was prescribed Losartan Pot 25mg. When the prescription was first filled, I received a green, oblong, tablet. When it was renewed, I received a tiny, round, pink pill. Is this just a manufacturer's difference, depending on who made the drug or is it something else, like being given the wrong medication?Frank ## Losartan is a generic medication, so it is manufactured by several different companies, but I can't really tell you any specifics, without knowing the markings on the tablets in question. Can you please post back with this information? If you do so, I will gladly check for you. Is there anything else I can help with?

It's white, circle on the pill, and its says sz 390. ## The tablet with the SZ 390 marking contains the same medication in the same dosages. What you need to know is that this is a generic medication, the name brand would be Hyzaar, so it is manufactured by several different companies. Are there any other questions or comments?

Do I still need to take my losartan now that I am on diltiazem and digoxin for Afib? ## What has your doctor advised? What have your blood pressure readings been? How's the a-fib? The Losartan is an ARB and the Doltiazem is a calcium channel blocker and while they both treat the same types of conditions, they are often used together to help enable better control of them. Thus, one shouldn't be stopped, without your doctor's approval and supervision. Are there any other questions or comments?

Would the above drug cause body itch? ## Yes, there are actually 2 ways that Losartan can cause this type of issue. The first would be if you happen to be allergic to it and the second would be as a side effect due to its nature of action in the body, its effect on blood vessels and circulation can cause this.

I was taking Losartan / HCT tab 100-12.5 for high blood pressure. I asked for a refill and was sent Losartan tab 100mg. What is the difference? No HCT AND 12.5? Is it OK that I take this? Thank you for your help. Tom ## You still need to take it, unless your doctor instructs you not to, because stopping these types of medications abruptly can result in a dangerous rebound effect that can include severely elevated blood pressure and heart rate. However, you do need to contact your doctor and the pharmacy, because if they provided you one with the 12.5mgs of Hydrochlorothiazide, then they gave you the wrong medication. Have you contacted the pharmacy, yet?
