Losartan Potassium 25 relaxes the blood vessels by blocking the action of a chemical that usually makes blood vessels tighter. This lowers the blood pressure, allowing the blood to flow more smoothly to different organs and the heart to pump more efficiently.

Losartan, Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker (ARB)
Losartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a substance in the body that causes blood vessels to tighten. This relaxation of blood vessels lowers blood pressure, improves blood flow, and helps to protect the kidneys.
Avoid alcohol as it can exacerbate side effects like dizziness.
Losartan is contraindicated in pregnancy (Pregnancy Category D). It can harm the fetus, especially during the second and third trimesters.
Limited data suggest it is probably safe. Consult your doctor before use.
Losartan may cause dizziness or drowsiness. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery if you feel affected.
Safe to use; no dose adjustment is typically required, but regular monitoring of blood pressure is necessary.
Use with caution. Dose adjustment may be needed in patients with severe liver disease.
Losartan blocks the action of angiotensin II, a chemical in your body that causes blood vessels to tighten. This relaxation of blood vessels lowers blood pressure and improves blood flow.

Less Common Side Effects:
The first orally active angiotensin II receptor blocker that is not a peptide is losartan potassium. It binds to the AT1 receptor, which is found in many tissues (including the heart, kidneys, adrenal gland, and vascular smooth muscle), and inhibits several vital biological processes, such as vasoconstriction and the synthesis of the hormone aldosterone, which is responsible for hypertension.
Potassium losartan is used to treat hypertension. It can be taken either on its own or in combination with other antihypertensive drugs (eg. thiazide diuretics).
In hypertensive type 2 diabetics with proteinuria—defined as urine albumin to creatinine ratio of more than 300 mg/g—losartan potassium is recommended as a treatment to halt the progression of renal damage.
Do not take Losartan if you are allergic to it.
Losartan Potassium is classified as Pregnancy Category D. The risk to the fetus increases if administered during the second or third trimesters. It is unknown if Losartan Potassium is excreted in human milk. Given that many drugs are excreted in breast milk and the potential for adverse effects on the nursing infant, a decision should be made to either discontinue nursing or discontinue the drug, considering the drug's importance to the mother.
Using Osartil during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy can impair fetal renal function, leading to increased fetal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. In patients with intravascular volume depletion, such as those on high-dose diuretics, symptomatic hypotension may occur. Plasma concentrations of Osartil are significantly higher in cirrhotic patients. Renal function changes, including renal failure, have been reported in patients with renal impairment.
