What Causes Runny Nose While On Losartan?

I was put on Losartan 50 mg. On Friday night. My nose is running like a sieve even with an anti histamine, and I’m sneezing a lot! Saturday morning, after being up for a half hour, I took my b.p. And it was 80/60 -this morning I had my coffee first and it was 139/66 with pulse 74.

Hello,

The Losartan drug does not cause running nose, maybe, it is due to viral infection, or allergic rhinitis, which can be treated with antihistamines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhadresh Lakhani
