You’re concise and not dramatic. I have confidence in you
My VA Doctor mention Dizziness & nothing else. The paperwork that came with Lorsatan mentioned a few more side effects, but you cover twice as many. Thank you very much. No more bananas for me.
I watched a few other doctors but found your's the best explanation, you also made it interesting, thank you.
Thank you so much very clear explanation Doc.
Crazy. Has never worked for me. Took it for years and felt bad, blood pressure, despite taking it with 3 other bp drugs, still very high. Stopped losartan and felt much better and no change in blood pressure in terms of going up. As a matter of fact, it has gotten slightly better.
Crazy.
Lots of information and so well explained. Thank you so very much sir!

Losartan has helped with my ED issues nice side effect!
Thank you for your advise 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Always welcome
Thanks for your commentary Doc. This was very educational.
Appreciate your feedback!
👍....This very informative video is speaking to me. I don't smoke or drink (20 yrs now) and have been on Losartan (25 mg) daily for several yrs without any side effects. My BP is excellently low and I am in very good health for my septuagenarian age. Your videos are ALL so very informative....Thank you
Thank you for your support and appreciate you sharing your experience with other viewers.
I have been on losartan .25 mg. now for about 5 days. The first 2 days....I was so dizzy...when I woke up in the morning. So, my dr. told me to cut it in half....have right after dinner...verses before bed...the half..makes me less dizzy...feeling wears off...& my bp is coming down...we will see how this next week progresses....because getting my bp under control is #1 priority...I am 67yrs. & 175lbs. and look like I'm 50yrs. Don't smoke or drink...and walk everyday*
Everyone's bodily system is different because of our various gene makeups. I'm 80 and been on it for several years now with NO known side effects and great BP. Have your DR suggest other alternatives to try. Sometimes it is all trial and error to reach the right balance. Good luck.
Need more about the back pain and muscle stiffness. Also numbness
with Losartan, I had developed muscle stiffness to where I could barely walk, and was very uncomfortable
It’s a great video thank you 👍👍👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
You packed in a ton of information, there. Great video!

Thank you for infomation Doc..
My pleasure
Thank you, doctor🤗
Thank you for this information! I was on Metoprolol, but it lowered by heart rate to the low 40's, but never lowered my BP. Then cardiologist put me on Lisinipril. It lowered my BP, but developed a bad cough was bad that was frequent, and very spasmodic, 24/7, even with taking Robitussin or Mucinex. Now they have started me on Losartan 25mg. Hoping this works!!
Glad it was helpful!
Smh....
Metropolol knocked my heart rate down to 35 beats a minute. Three months later a cardiologist put me on lisinopril; the heart rate went back to a more normal mid 60s. Between the two of them, it caused ED. Planning to ask my doc about losartan, it may help bring back happy hour.
Great information-thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for sharing 😊
Having a heart condition I have been taking 150 mg of Losatan and 200 mg of metoprolol as well as50 mg of Spirix ( tradename Spiron) and 20 mg of Furosemid for almost 8 years I can tell that side effects can be better just by switching brand, not the actual medicatin it self. Just the coating of pills can make a difference and of course what is being used as " filler " to make the pills. never had high blood pressure. I really do not take medication well, gives me a lot of bad side effects but I manage to find a spot where medication helps and I still have a life worth living. You made a very good video about this Doc. Thanks.
Keep with in touch with your doc..Metoprolol in such a higher dose!!!!! O My God!!!!!!!
Erik how is ur sleep
Omg 😳.....
Thank you sir for your sharing this ! My doctor said lorsatan is good for you this Lorsatan that I’m taking now !!

How about Tozam Dr. what can you say about this drug?
Thanks for answering my question Dr. This drug is what I am using for my maintenance for my high blood pressure.
Tozam is also an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), it is similar to Losartan.
Dr Pius Ozigbe is Always on time. compassionate. Empathetic. easy to take to and relates exceptionally well. Hands down the most effective and efficient doctor I recommend him. thank you doctor❤❤❤❤😮
I'm taking Losartan 100mg and Amlodipine 5mg.
I have leaking valve, should I take any diuretics, like my cardiologist ordered to me ?
Is it safe to take both amlodipine and losartan? What are the side effects?
you can eat potassium foods, a recent small study has proved theres no problem eating bananas etc...
Losartan seemed to wire me... almost like I was on caffeine without the coffee jitters. On top of that my hips would hurt while I was trying to sleep on my side. My doctor is switching me to amlodipine now. Will see how that goes.
I was on Amlodipine 5 milligrams it gave me terrible swelling in my feet and ankles
quite a few possible uses for Losartan ! I never knew so much about Losartan- I feel like you are turning me into an internist !
Thanks for checking the video.I am trying to save you money for medical school tuition.
Been on it for 3 months,, two months I was ok but the last month I'm feeling down,, kinda depressed,, not much ambition,, will this go away over time.
I like your way of explaining about this drug , very clear, thanks Doc .
Thank you for your kind words.
@@ThinkYourHealth thank you , I got a lot more about my present medication iam with both drug.
@@ThinkYourHealth \amv
Doctor ilike how you tale time to explain thank you
ok thanks mom mmm
Thank you for the effects and side effects of the medications. Is it bad for me if I take this meds for a long time?
Do I needs to switch meds every so oftern? I took Losartan ,now my I switched to Omlodipen.
Can I stay with a certain meds for a long time or I need to switch to Lozartan?
The choice of BP medication is determined by your comorbidities.BP should be a combination of lifestyle changes and medications, once that is well maintained you can discuss with your Doctor if a dose reduction can be trialed.
Thank you. Not sure how it can cause kidney damage. My doctor didn't say anything about that.
In these situations:if you have a pre existing kidney problem, another kind of kidney disease where the kidney blood flow is lower ( called renal artery stenosis), and in older patients you would be at risk.
My doctor started me on 100 milligrams then put me on 50milligrams I still felt fatigued didn’t want to do anything blood pressure was still to low so I cut it in half to 25 milligrams I am feeling a little better. Now I know where the cough is coming from
