HI
Well come to HCM
Appreciate this
Heart palpitation may not be due to Losartan tab 50 mg but it could be separate condition, some time this could be nonspecific
Advise:
Best option to rule out cardiac element or disease that might be causing palpitation are EKG and EHO study
Treatment:
Stress level should be at low level
Medication:
Continue Tab Losartan 50 mg as it is
Unless palpitation have some etiological caused and found it this can not be treated neither this could be harmful, take care.
