Can i take potassium gluconate with losartan-hctz???
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Potassium : Why are you planning to take potassium supplements? Did you get labs done to suggest low K? Losartan and HCTZ (hydrochlorothiazide) counteract the k handling by the kidney. Suggest have you serum potassium checked and then take and if on it have a follow up potassium done.
