Taking Losartan Potassium. 25mg
UpdatedMy blood pressure has been running low the past days. Today average is 107/70. Will I still take the losartan?
I also am being treated for anxiety. I took last night 8pm .125mg of CLONAZEPAM (1/4 pill). That's probably worn out by today 6pm. Please help me decide. I'm scared that if I don't take losartan my BP might rise.

Hello, Techi! How are you?
Those aren't dangerously low numbers and you should still take your medication as prescribed by your doctor. Stopping suddenly creates the risk of a rebound effect that could cause your blood pressure and heart rate to elevate to dangerous levels. The typical side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain and hypotension.
The Clonazepam can also lower your blood pressure, so it might be due to the combo.
Have you consulted your doctor?
