Detailed Answer:
Welcome to ,' Ask a doctor service ,'
I have read your query and here is my opinion .
You should replace losartan hydrochlorothiazide with losartan .
As pulse rate is more , let the atenolol continue .
You should keep watch on tiredness level and blood pressure monitoring .
If possible , start monitoring BP at home , check at 2 times a day .
I am sure , you will get relief in 4 or 5 days .
Also start a multivitamin antioxidant combination .
I hope your thyroid status is normal .
If you have any further query then you can come back with follow up query .
