Hi,
Losartan can also cause, angioedema or other allergic reactions so these as well as other of same group ACE or ARB, so it's better to switch to other alternatives like calcium channel blockers and diuretics. Amlodioine and hydrochlorothiazide is one possibility of combination if uric acid is normal.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
