Losartan is anti hypertensive so if given will reduce the bp which can be risky in person with normal bp.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Losartan is used to treat high blood pressure. It is possible that doctor must have prescribed it for controlling the high BP. Since there is no mention of any BP readings, it is difficult for me to know exactly. Thanks.

If bp is 200 it is dangerous.
It is less then 140.
So consult your physician and adjust years doses and drugs.

I think, first you check your tsh and ecg, pounding of heat may not be because of amlodac. Rule out other causes first.

My doctor said I have to take amlodipine for lifetime. Because my bp is 130/90. We have a family background of high blood and stroke. But I research about amlodipine it has a side effect for liver. Is my doctor right or wrong?

As of now follow your doctors advice and liver side effects is negligible with amlodipine but just imagine if you don’t take medication than what all can be damaged in your body with high Bp
