That is an excellent question. Leg cramps are often caused by what is called intermittant claudication, which is related to blood circulation. A pacemaker may limit blood circulation under certain circumstances. Unlikely, but not impossible. Speak to your cardiologist about this. They question is not that silly. He need a color dopplar of his legs to evaluate circulatory status, to keep well-hydrated, and excercise regularly, walking as much as possible.
feeling like I was going to pass out, leg cramps, chest pain. And not that it's been two months I think it's still working in my system. My bp is still low. I have tried to mention this to the doctor's and they look at me like: well you're not taking it anymore etc. When I first went off of it my BUN levels were low and my creatnine was low and they're slowly improving and I am feeling better little by little. My clotting factors were off while taking this medicine.
I'm newly diagnosed diabetic and taking Metformin 500mg 2x a day. I have been taking it for about 10 days and have had the worse cramps and stomach pain! I'm not sure if it is my pre menstrual, which never feels like this, or the new medication. Has anyone had stomach pains or cramps as side effect of Metformin? I'm also taking Lisinopril-HTCZ.
Losartan is not a beta blocker. Instead it is an ARB. By blocking the action of angiotensin, losartan relaxes muscle cells and dilates blood vessels, reducing blood pressure. It can cause nasal congestion and persistent cough,
Since you have both the cough and leg swelling, you should ask to try another bp medication. There are other types.
I exercise (training) 3 times a week, go running regularly and used to do athletics 12 hours a week, but have experienced that faint feeling and chest pain (it feels like my chest cramps up) whenever I exercise more severely in the last 2 weeks.
I'm a sixteen year old female, have a BMI of 18.6, am vegan and was hospitalized for stage 2 hypertension that wouldn't go down during the night (I had a 24 hour B.P.
Does anyone know what causes leg pain every time I stand up and walk that gets worse until I have to sit down or elevate my legs? The pain is like heavy squeezing throughout both legs, that makes my legs get so heavy and stiff they are hard to move. I can not walk more than about 30 minutes.
The skin on my legs gets flushed, when I stand or walk, and the redness fades away when I elevate my legs. The hair stopped growing on both legs and the skin feels cold.
Hallo there -anyone and everyone. Is there any reasons to prefer or take losartan above olmesartan or the olmesartan above losartan. Person taking these is african, 57 years, female and oh, my mother.
Blood pressure has been up so doseage of losartan was increased and diuretic added this week. Terrible deep muscle cramping and surface spasms. Each drug has its own side effects. Am I being too restrictive of sodium and potassium intake? Hoping not to have to add more drugs to the mix. I'm stage 3-4, 1b, had breakthrough wk 65 of SOC May 2010.
Appreciate any insight from tx exp'd- Thanks!
His averaged blood pressure is 146/80. He was placed on losartan potassium (50 mg) for 8 days but there is no change to his averaged blood pressure. Would you advice him continuing losartan or seek new drugs? Many thanks.

//www.drugs.com/sfx/losartan-side-effects.html Uncommonly, ear congestion and hearing loss occur. But you are describing hypersensitivity. Losartan is associated for some with tremor. I would wonder if the sound issue is not related to a bit of anxiety. I'm not really seeing anything in the literature to support what you describe with retards to sound being louder but sensory experiences can be affected whenever our nervous system is not regulated.
My GP put me on Lisinopril last year but switched me to Losartan after the Lisinopril failed to help. The Losartan brought my BP down a lot with a 50 mg daily dose. I was down to 110/70 and even 100/65 at times. I even got light-headed when I stood up quickly. The GP said this was normal and good. He likes my BP to be well below 120/80.
So far so good. I was getting the Losartan from Walgreens as a 30 day supply.
I have been on Losartan for approximately eight months come here recently I have found it very difficult to swallow my food and seems like he gets caught in my esophagus, yesterday at two different Meals I began to choke on my food I had to drink several glasses of water in order to get my food to go down with no issues. Could this be a side effect of Losartan?
I am currently on Lisinopril to keep my BP down (I have Cardiomyopathy after going into CHF from a virus that went to my heart). I have had a cough which is a side effect of Lisinopril. My doctor just gave me a RX for Losartan but this med is more expensive by quite a bit. I haven't had any other problems with Lisinopril besides the cough and I am scared to change meds and take the chance of worse side effects.
People often take sleeping meds and anti depressants that have hcv or are treating. I don't know a lot about the lisinoprill, but I read about a small study that Losartan (for high blood pressure) may reverse fibrosis.
Your doctor should know about your hcv and your meds, especially if you are treating.
