Hypertension: Cut salt intake, lose weight, but you still may need a second medication as 60% or more patients with hypertension still may need 2 or more medications to control their blood pressure.

HTN: Often requires multiple medications of different classes. Losartan is a good drug but you probably need a second agent to control your blood pressure. See your doctor.
