I am taking 25 mg of Losartan for several months and I am concerned about some being recalled.
Also, I have had significant hair loss. It's either due to this drug or stress. Is there any info that could help me. Also I called my pharmacy to ask if my supply was recalled. She said no. I am still concerned and have stopped taking it.
How do I find out if Losartan causes hair loss?
