A member asked:
I take losartan100mg. side effects are slight tightness in chest, and arm. palpitation about every other day. at 50mg, would side effects be less?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably.: Many side effects are indeed dose dependent. BUT these do not sound like typical side effects of Losartan. While anything is possible I would suggest that something else may be responsible for your symptoms.
