Brief Answer:
Please refer to the detailed answer below

Detailed Answer:
Sir

After reading the medical query raised by you I would like to tell you that kindly mention the GENERIC name or the salt name of the medicine Just like you are mentioning Losartan which is the salt name.

Names like Auro and Solc seems like brand name which is not familiar to all doctors.

So it's advisable to mention the actual medicine (salt or generic) name which is written in the composition panel of every medicine box or strip for proper understanding and guidance.

I hope you understand what am trying to convey.

Kind Regards

Both are same medicines and there so no difference. The actual salt is same Losartan which is an antihypertensive medicine and Auro or Salc are the names of the manufacturers.

I hope this will answer your query.
