Short Of Breath On Losartan
UpdatedHi i was on Amilodipine 10mg for about two years but was having bad side effects, so in April last year my Dr. Put me on Losartan 100mg. I feel better on Losartan - less tired but still have side effects, dry cough and now short of breath which i never had before also get up about three times in the night to use the toilet. My bp on losartan is average around 130/80 100 pulse. I am 61 yrs of age. I did try to lower the dose for a week by taking 50mg but my bp started to creep up again so i returned to the 100mg dose. I have recently moved to Russia but will have to go to uk in May to tie up a few loose ends. I hope to visit my gp then. Thank you.
