What Causes Body Pain While On Losartan For High BP?
I m a 72 yr old female who started taking 100mg of Losartin 1-2 years ago for high blood pressure. Now my body hurts. Walking some distance sometimes causes my hips to almost lock up because they hurt so much. My feet hurt, back, shoulders. Anyway, is this possibly caused by Losartin? I also take omeprezole 2 X day.

Hello,
I don't think that the pain you are having all over the body may be related to losartan or omeprazole usage. I think this is probably related to osteoarthritis. You should do a total blood count and formula and ERS also do an x-ray of joints.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
