What Causes High Blood Pressure And Dizziness?

Yes my physician put me on Losarrtan potassium. I have been taking for about 2 weeks and my blood pressure has actually gone higher than before I started taking. I am light headed and feel dizzy and confused, as well as anxious. The last time I took my blood pressure it was 145/104. What should I do? I feel extremely strange.
