What Causes Headache And Neck Pain After Having Losartan For High BP?
Hi. Im Ivy 39 years old. I was diagnosed by my Doctor as hypertensive because my bp was 130/100. Then he gave me losartan 50mg and atenolol 25mg. After months of taking it, my bp falls to120/80 then sometimes 130/100. I could feel headache and neck pain. Is this the effect of my 130/100 bp. Do I need to take a higher dosage? Or I can lower it by strict diet and exercise like walking in the morning? Thank you
