Question for doctors that prescribed angiotensin receptor blockers for hypertension... which arb did your patients complain least about (had least side effects)? and which one was more problematic than others... thanks?

I mostly use losartan. Everyone is different and not possible to do so in a. Individual patient. As Yoggi BERRA SAID: it is not possible to make predictions. Especially about the future. I would ask you treating Dr what has been their experience in folks like you who live where you live.
