Is Losartan Advisable To Treat Fluctuating BP Level In The Elderly?
I am 96 years of age. I feel I am being made a guinea pig to try the whim of various doctors to try vairous kinds of meds for my high blood pressure which fluctuates during the day to way over 200 over in the 90s.At this time I would like to know if Losartan magnesium 100 mg tablets is a good choice for me. I took one tablet yesterday and soon after felt short of breath and during the day felt not able to concentrate well.mslade

see there are minor variations in bp as much as upto 10 or 15 in a day ..but if variations are more then better drug is meroprolol ..but usually drug is decided by doctor after checking other parameters as pulse or sugar or copd etc ..so please consult your local doctor he Will discuss all aspects
