HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
There are different types of blood pressure medications available, they work in different ways.
The main ways these medications work are : (1) to dilate or widen the blood vessels and therefore decrease the pressure in these blood vessels
(2) to help the body lose any excess fluids, excess fluid volume is a common cause of high blood pressure and
(3) slow down the heart rate, so the heart does not have to work as hard
Losartan works to decrease the pressure in the blood vessels , it also helps remove some of the excess fluids.
To further decrease your blood pressure and reduce your heart rate , you may want to add a beta blocker.
This type of medication would decrease your pulse and blood pressure.
There are different beta blockers, some of the most common are metoprolol, bisoprolol, carvediol and labetalol.
If your blood pressure and heart rate remains high, your doctor may suggest one of these.
They are all effective.
I hope this helps, feel free to ask any additional questions
