How Can severe Head Cold Along With Sore Throat Be Treated?
I take losartan 50 mg and bupropion 15 extended release, both daily. I have a severe head cold. Drippy nose, eyes etc. Sore throat is coming. Feel bad. Is there any over the counter cold medication I can take that will not give me trouble with these meds? My BP prior to Losartan was about 180 over 110. With Losartan 135 over 85. thank you

Hi,
I understand you are having these symptoms that indicate viral syndrome flu).
To relieve symptoms I suggest you to:
-Drink plenty of fluids
-Rest, because it helps your immune system to fight infection
-You can also take pain killer drug (Ibuprofen twice daily) or Tylenol
-You should measure your blood pressure regularly, and increase the Losartan dosage, these days if you have an increase in blood pressure.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
