Anyone else had this issue please? I have read this is one of the rarer side effects of this drug.

Hi Bobby Collins , it is one of the rarer side effects but I noticed I feel a bit unsteady some days since taking it but as I already am unsteady from arthritic joints I've decided to ignore it as I am limited to what BP tablets I can take anyway.

Thanks Katie. I am really finding it difficult to obtain something suitable for various reasons. We soldier on !

Hi Bobby, when I first started Losartan 25mg about a year ago, I had days when I felt a little dizzy. This has passed, now on 50mg with no side effects.
