HELLO, I AM TAKING BENICAR HCT 20MG/12.5MG ONCE A DAY

HELLO, I AM TAKING BENICAR HCT 20MG/12.5MG ONCE A DAY FOR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. IT IS A
LITTLE BIT EXPENSIVE, MY INSURANCE COVERS ONLY 30%.
MY CARDIOLOGIST IS ON VACATION AND THE COVERING PHYSICIAN SAW ME YESTERDAY AND
SWITCHED IT TO HYDROCHLOROTHIAZIDE-LOSARTAN 12.5MG-50MG ONMCE A DAY.
IS IT O.K. TO SWITCH IT IMMEDIATELY?
THANK YOU
