Avatar m tn I went to the doctor and told him this when i had it and got told it was probably due to my blood pressure dropping
Avatar n tn Losartan alone, also known as Cozaar does not have a diuretic. But Losartan with HCTZ is also known as Hyzaar. Don't assume yours has the diuretic in it. Ask the pharmacist.
Avatar m tn m currently seeing a cardiologist that has me currently on losartan 100mg/25mg hctz...my blood pressure tends to average about 130/75 right now(with meds). I had a sinus infection in December that lasted over a month and a half..(none of these symptoms was present before this) since January....I have a weird pressure/fluidly feeling that comes in the back of my head with a pulsating beat, and I'll get pressure above my nose...
Avatar m tn s that have been dealing with my blood pressure running 140/ 90 for a while my doctor put me on Losartan HCTZ 50- 12.5 and my pressure. After my 6 months check up my pressure was still the same so he increased my Losartan to 100-12.5 and a few weeks after I would get readings of 130 /80 sometimes and others I would get 129/78.
Avatar m tn m male, 22 years old, 6,3 220 pounds athletic build, and I have currently been taking 100mg losartan/hctz 25mg for hypertension about 7 months ago. Since I have been on this medicine I have experienced skipped/extra beats when I exert myself in exercise. It's very troubling because I stop myself every time because I feel like I may be over doing it. The thing is I never had this happen before I started the meds. I also feel my pulse all over like in temples, head, back, legs.....

Avatar m tn I'm on Losartan/Hctz combination for hypertension. I'm 22yrs old normal weight, don't smoke or drink, eat good and I stay hydrated. I woke up this morning took my medicine, and about an hour later I stood up from sitting my heart rate wentfrom 75 to 97 maybe even higher at times....I don't do this every morning but sometimes it will happens. Is this my meds? Being as it only happens sometimes?
Avatar f tn I used to take lisinipril...low dose of 5mg mainly to help my kidneys as I am diabetic. Over one year went up to lisinipril 40 mg and it stopped working. I was put on propranolol and then metoprolol with the following awful side effects: dry mouth, shortness of breath. They did lower my pressure though. Along with these, I took HCTZ 12.5 mg which also have me those same sided effects.
Avatar m tn Hi today I seen my cardiologist to follow up on my tests that were done (echocardiogram). I'm 22 years old, male, normal weight, 6'2, and I've been active my whole life in sports. I have hypertension and today I went in for my visit my blood pressure was 164/88.
2009161 tn?1327915695 I am currently taking losartan 100mg/hctz, I went to the doc today and my Bp was 170/80 very high systolic not sure why? I was somewhat anxious but I'm on meds just 22 years old so I understand your situation. I am heading tomorrow for another heart echo (had one in feb but by a different doc) hoping for good results. I also hope you find what your needing. Sorry I know I didn't help, just letting you know your not alone.
Avatar m tn Hi thanks for taking time to read first off and happy holidays!! I recently had a heart echo done Febuary of this year by my family doctor, after I found out I had hypertension at a young age and my EKG showing thickening (Results: mild leaky valve) was all that was mentioned all else was normal. Then I started seeing a cardiologist for my hypertension and he read my results from my previous doctor said all was good...but I've been on Bloodpressure meds since may of this year.
Avatar m tn Hello I'm 22 with hypertension I'm currently taking Losartan 100mg/hctz 25mg to try and maintain a decent reading. Today I played football (flag) for 2 hours straight, I played pretty hard, my Heart rate when I got home was 93...then I checked it an hour later it was 88 then 2 hours total since I played it was is still at 86....my normal resting Hr varies from higher 50's-70...is this ok it's taking this long to return? I've not played that hard in months...
Avatar m tn My cardiologist told me of this and I was, scared confused, so I came home googled and found it was very serious. I am now on losartan 100mg/hctz 25mg, and at night I take spironolacone 25mg. My blood pressure runs anywhere from 135/80-148/92 on the meds. I cannot use a beta blocker, because late evening my resting Heart Rate gets to low 50's. But during the day runs anywhere from 80-60 resting. Typically get 80 more often after a full meal.
Avatar f tn the doctor switched me to Losartan 50 qd. I am going to change on Monday to Losartan and am nervous about what will happen. any thoughts on this??
Avatar m tn 52 year old male in good health. High BP controlled with Losartan/HCTZ. 30 LBS overweight. Some fatigue issues. Blood work on 03/09/16 indicated Total Bilirubin at 2.3 (normal range .2-1.2) Other liver enzymes normal. Blood work on 3/23/16 indicated Total Bilirubin at 2.6, Direct bilirubin .3. (Normal range <or =.2). My direct Bilirubin is just outside the normal range, (some labs say normal is <or =.3) Direct bilirubin is only 12% of the bilirubin total.
Avatar m tn I do take meds for hypertension, losartan, hctz, and spirolactone. Like right now I can see my temple vein(not a hard pulse) but is visible. I just checked my Bp and it's (125/63). I mentioned it to my doctor an he just said it's probably Blood pressure spikes after eating and dismisses the subject? Just wondering if you know of anyone that has this problem? It's really bothering.
Avatar f tn According to the labs I went from hypo to hyper - during the time period I was on hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ or HCT). The Endocrinology Department allegedly told her that missing a day or two of Synthroid would explain why I went HYPER. Geeesh. Does not compute. Found out I am allergic to HCTZ (they were supposed to have caught that since I have documented six ways to Sunday about almost dying from a sulfa drug and HCTZ is a thiazide (thi = sulfur).
Avatar m tn Hello in I'm sorry to hear about your situation and I hope everything turns out for the better! It might ease you to know your not alone, I too have very high blood pressure I am a male and just 22 years old. I've always been very active in sports, not over weight, never smoked, don't drink, but I was started out on hctz which did nothing for me, the when to a combination of Losartan/hctz and I'm now on the max of those two drugs and my average Bp 150/90 throughout the day.
Avatar m tn Hello Thanks for taking time to view my post I had hypertension diagnosed for 2 yrs ago, I started meds about a year and a half ago. Meds wasn't working or gave me bad side affects so they finally started me on losartan 100mg/hctz and spirolactone 25mg(twice daily) it's been running anywhere from 125-145/60-77 lately it's been 130's-140's/70-60s my top number(systolic) is always the high one. I have lvh(left venticular hypertrophy) with a thickness of 1.
2009161 tn?1327915695 I was worried so went to a doctor, the doctor checked my BP was 170/100, which was high as per the doctor, since then I am having LOSARTAN POTASIUM tablets of 50 mg every day prescribed by him, but still at times my BP in the evenings when I check is 150/100. Do I need to increase my dossage or continue with some physical excercises to reduce my BP, when ever I did some meditation for 10 mins, I checked with my electronic BP monitor it reduces compared to previous reading though.
