Hello
You mentioned that you are taking losartan from last 3 weeks and feeling dizziness ( so losartan may be the reason of this dizziness ) . You are also taking pantoprazole for hyper acidity .
The main side effects or adverse reactions of pantoprazole are :diarrhea, rash,DIZZINESS, ANXIETY FLATULENCE and many more side effects .
So dizziness may be due to the side effect of both medicine , while anxiety amy be due to pantoprazole .
Hope this will help you.
