Hello welcome to HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Losartan (losar) is the drug of choice in case of hypertension on patients of diabetes. So, don't worry about it.
But atenolol and losartan is not a good combination as such. Amlodipine is a better combination with losartan.
So, if you don't have previous heart related issues ask your doctor to change atenolol to amlodipine.
Thank you.
Have a nice day.
