Losartan And Short Term Memory Loss

Updated

I've been taking losartan 50mg and lately I've noticed that I have difficulty remembering. Is it possible that the losartan is causing short term memory loss?

Yes, there is a possibility, though that is not a normal side effect, according to FDA reports. They typically include nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, and hypotension.

Are you on any other medications?

I take 12.5 to 25 mg when needed and noticed memory impairment in April 2016. When I reported it to cardiologist and associates, they said they were unaware. I also noticed other side effects as well. I plan to discontinue because things seem progressively worse.
