Does Losartan Cause Extreme Fatigue (Top voted first)

Updated

I take Losartan in the am and Paxil and Lipitor before bed. I find myself extremely tired and could sleep most of the time. I can't wait to got to bed. Is this tiredness due to the Losartan or Paxil??? If so I want my Dr. to wean me off of it. I was always extremely active...not used to this. Thanks,Carol

Hello, Carol! How are you?

The first culprit that I would suspect for such a problem would actually be the Lipitor. It is classified by the FDA as being a statin medication and they cause problems for many people that take them, in quit a few cases, people have had to stop taking it altogether. You may also experience nausea, headache and joint/muscle aches.

There is also a chance that it would be a combination of all of them. Have you discussed the issue with your doctor?

How long have you been taking each?

I have been on a lot of different blood pressure tablets for 16 years, since kidney transplant. Tried losartan and many many others. Always had side effects. This January I stopped drinking alcohol, was a fairly heavy red wine drinker. Guess what, my blood pressure dropped! I stopped taking the medication and checking my blood pressure every day with a health app. So now no more wine, just a few glasses every 3 weeks or so.... I am almost embarrassed that this change was all that I needed.
