My mother is 65 yrs and has been taking Losar for 2 yrs - now she has developed a dry irritating cough. The Doctor told her it is due to Losar and asked her to stop taking it. But it has been 4 weeks and the cough has not improved. She has developed other symptoms with the cough - very low grade fever (99.5) with chills and erythroderma of skin with itching on arms. She has dizziness and nausea in the morning also. When will the effects of Losar disappear. She is tired of coughing. Nothing improves the cough. Is there anything that could help? Her lungs are clear with no phlegm.

Yes, Lostartan can cause a dry cough, however, it usually doesn't cause the fever, chills and other symptoms she is experiencing.

Has she been back to her doctor to talk to him about them?


It sounds like she may just be sick from something, possibly a virus, like the flu.
