Losartan Potassium is the first non-peptide, orally active angiotensin II receptor blocker. It binds to the AT1 receptor found in many tissues (such as vascular smooth muscle, the adrenal gland, kidneys and heart) and reduces several important biological actions, including vasoconstriction and the release of aldosterone, which are responsible for hypertension.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy Category D. If Losartan Potassium is taken during the second or third trimester of pregnancy, the risk to the baby increases. It is not known whether Losartan Potassium passes into human breast milk. Since many drugs do pass into breast milk, and because of the possible risk of adverse effects on a nursing infant, a decision should be made whether to stop breastfeeding or stop the medicine, weighing how important the drug is to the mother.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Adults: The usual starting and maintenance dose for most patients is 50 mg once daily. If 50 mg once daily does not lower blood pressure enough, 25 mg twice daily is recommended before the dose is increased. For patients with intravascular volume depletion (for example, those treated with high-dose diuretics), a starting dose of 25 mg once daily should be considered. Losartan Potassium can be given once or twice daily. The total daily dose ranges from 25 mg to 100 mg. Patients up to 75 years: No initial dosage adjustment is necessary for this group of patients. Patients over 75 years: There is currently limited clinical experience in this group; a lower starting dose of 25 mg once daily is recommended.
