What is a common adverse drug reaction associated with Losartan Potassium?

Losartan Potassium, an angiotensin II receptor blocker used primarily to treat hypertension and reduce the risk of stroke in patients with hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy, can indeed lead to headaches as a common adverse drug reaction. Headaches may occur due to the medication's effects on blood pressure regulation and blood flow to the brain.

While fatigue, nausea, and drowsiness can also be associated with other medications affecting the cardiovascular system, they are not as frequently reported as headaches in patients using Losartan. Understanding this helps healthcare providers monitor and manage side effects effectively when prescribing Losartan, ensuring that patients have a clear understanding of potential reactions they may experience while on this medication.
