Just back from my own gp He has changed my ramipril to losartan due to the cough and itching I have He is very happy with my BP reading for last two weeks which I took with me and says my pulse is fine also He is happy that my medication is working fine and stressed my pulse was good

Hope the losartan works as well I'm going to continue to do reading twice daily for next few weeks see how it goes
