Brief Answer:
Hydrochlorthiazide can cause low testosterone

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I can understand your concern.

Hydrochlorthiazide can cause low testosterone levels and erectile dysfunction if you have been in treatment for more than one year.

So I would suggest you to discuss with your treating physician about the possibility to stop HCTZ and start testosterone injections with the dose depending on the testosterone level and the presence of other conditions.

If HCTZ is the cause of low testosterone, the treatment needed is only for some months, otherwise the treatment is long term.

There is no interaction with Losartan.

Hope the information will help. Feel free to ask if you have still queries.

Best wishes.

So I can safely take the Predoxin? I just had my prescription refilled with a 90 day supply. I had ordered the Predoxin and did not see the warning about not taking it if taking high blood pressure medication until I received the shipment of Predoxin. (presopin vasodiolation)

Thanks,
XXXXXXX XXXXXXX

About predoxen;

Detailed Answer:
Welcome back,
Predoxen is not considered a drug, does not require a prescription and does not contain any drugs or substances but natural products.
Of course the blood pressure should be stabilized before taking it.
You can try it for a couple of months, but i think that you need treatment with testosterone.
Natural products has a low strength.

Kind regards,
