[|Human|] Im taking losartan potassium (50 mg). Im 34 years old. My pressure has been high for over a year maybe two. I didnt tell my doctor  I think its because I drink everyday . Ive been drinking alcohol since I was 12. I dont  believe I have liver damage yet. I was to embarassed to confess this problem. How long do I have to take this medication? I havent taken a drink since I started the drug. Is this hypertension curable?
[|AI|]  Hello, Excessive alcohol can cause increase in the blood pressure, and moderation in the same would help to overall improve your health. I am happy that you have been able to abstain from it since on medication, do continue the same and be strong-willed about leaving alcohol. The medication losartan is appropriate to control the blood pressure for time being. If you achieve ideal weight, consider 45 mins of aerobic exercise daily and cut salt in your diet to less than 2-3 GMS a day, there is a fair chance that your blood pressure problem will be reversed.  Let me know if any further clarification needed, and I would be happy to help.  Regards Chat Doctor.
