Losartan 25mg Tablets
SKU GME290Product Introduction
Losartan 25mg is an angiotensin receptor blocker used for high blood pressure, selected kidney-protection indications in type 2 diabetes with proteinuria, and other cardiovascular situations when losartan is prescribed. It blocks angiotensin II at AT1 receptors, relaxing blood vessels and reducing aldosterone effects without directly inhibiting ACE. Because of that, it is less likely than ACE inhibitors to cause a dry cough, though cough can still occur for other reasons.
How to use
Take Losartan 25mg once daily as prescribed, at a consistent time. Keep blood pressure, kidney-function, and potassium monitoring. Avoid potassium salt substitutes unless approved.
How it works
Losartan blocks angiotensin II AT1 receptors, relaxing blood vessels and lowering aldosterone-related sodium and water retention.
Common side effects
Possible effects include dizziness, low blood pressure, tiredness, headache, high potassium, and kidney-test changes. Serious concerns include allergic swelling, kidney injury, severe hyperkalemia, and pregnancy-related fetal harm.
Important information
Review pregnancy, breastfeeding, kidney disease, renal artery stenosis, dehydration, high potassium, heart failure, liver disease, NSAIDs, potassium supplements, salt substitutes, spironolactone/eplerenone, ACE inhibitors, aliskiren, lithium, and diuretics.
Uses
Hypertension and selected kidney or cardiovascular indications when losartan therapy is prescribed.
Benefits
Lowers blood pressure and can reduce kidney or cardiovascular strain in selected patients, with monitoring for potassium and kidney function.
What is Losartan 25mg used for?
Losartan 25mg is used for high blood pressure and selected kidney or cardiovascular indications when prescribed.
Is losartan the same as lisinopril?
No. Losartan is an ARB, while lisinopril is an ACE inhibitor; both affect the renin-angiotensin system differently.
Why monitor potassium?
Losartan can raise potassium, especially with kidney disease, dehydration, supplements, salt substitutes, or potassium-sparing diuretics.
Can Losartan Potassium 25mg be used during pregnancy?
No. Losartan should be stopped and urgently reviewed if pregnancy occurs.
Does Losartan Potassium 25mg cause cough?
It is less likely to cause dry cough than ACE inhibitors, but any persistent cough should still be reviewed.
