First side effect - blood pressure

[Bonaparte]

Angiotensin II receptor antagonists (like losartan) have the same effect as ACE inhibitors, with less risk of side effects. The downside is that they're more expensive because they're newer.
This is why it is generally a good idea to try ACE inhibitors first, then switch for Losartan if you get side effects from them.

BTW, you mean 150/90 (mmHg) for your BP.

Yes 150/90 mmHg.

Thanks for your explanation. The insurance is paying.

Took 150mgs of irbesartan and 30min later the feeling of headache was gone. Gonna take couple of days off training.
