dear,
stoppage of losartan have no relation with your sleep disturbances per se.
The problems you are having points towards a condition called restless leg syndrome.
Cause is unknown.
let know if you experience a symptoms of persistent low mood or reduced renergy levels in recent times.
I suggest your treating doctor a
tab sertraline 50 mg bd
thanks
