What Causes Depression, Confusion And Burred Vision While On Losartan?

I am taking Lesartan 50mm once a day. I have been taking them for 10 days and am feeling some curious side effects. Depression medium to sometime worse. Certainly confusion and sometimes burred vision. Is that a balance worth taking as to Blood pressure which is most caused through Stress. Thanks for any help. John N
