[|Human|] I have been taking Losartin 50mg for 10 days now and feel awful every day with flu like symptoms and dizziness - I had put it down originaly to statins that I had and which gave me awful side effects but have not been on the statin for 2-3 weeks now and only took two and was asked to stop them after they gave me terrible side effects. However the flu like symptoms have continued and I can only ut it down tothe increased Losartin the GP gave me. I feel like stopping them just to see how I am (can t see the GP till after christmas) but don t want to go over the holiday feeling like I do either!
[|AI|]  Hello, Losartan does not usually cause the problems you describe, though rarely they can cause flu-like symptoms. So I would say it would be reasonable to try stopping it or switching to another medication, but I would at least try to contact your GP about this before doing it, to make sure your blood pressure or whatever other reason you are taking it won't be out of control when you stop it. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care.
