Does Paracetamol Interact With Losartan?

Can I take paracetamol with potassium losartan (which I take for hypertension)? I have a head cold and a lemsip type analgesic would be handy. Two other drugs (Atorvastatin & amlodopine) that I take I understand to be ok, but ibuprofen I think is a no-no with my prescribed aspirin.

Hi,

Yes, you can use paracetamol or Acetaminophen alongside the medicines you mentioned. Using Ibuprofen and Lopirin together which are almost from same group may aggravate chances of renal or gastric involvement so better be avoided.

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

Wishing you a speedy recovery.
