What Is Effective Alternative To Losartin 100mg/HCTZ 12.5 ?

I currently take Losartin 100mg/HCTZ 12.5. Can I switch to something like Furosimide 80mg plus a seperate HCTZ of 12.5 mg. The cost of the angiotensin med is through the roof and I need to take advantage of Walmart low price. Please advise. What about Verapimil 80 or 120 mg and HCTZ? Thank you so much.
