A member asked:

Do you know if amlodipine + losartan combination is better for hypertension than losartan + hydrochlorothiazide?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Amlodipine/Losartan is more potent combination than Losartan/HCTZ One caveat from my experience is that Losartan is one of the weakest antihypertensives in the angiotensin receptor blocker class of medications
