Question : I just started taking Lipitor 10 mg as well as Losartin for blood pressure. That is 100 mg. I’m feeling very lethargic and wondering if it has anything to do with the medications. I’m typically very energetic .

Brief Answer:
May be you are taking too much Losartan.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

Both losartan and Lipitor have side effects of tiredness and fatigue. Also, you can check your blood pressure levels, because fatigue may be related with hypotension caused by taking Losartan.
In this case lowering the dose can help. Some multivitamin can help regain energy.

Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
