I was on Lisinopril and also had the cough. Seems to be genetic as my family also developed the cough. I have been on Losartan (Cozaar) for less than a week and have developed a hive-like rash as well, so I stopped and have requested to be put back on Diovan.

Used name brand Cozaar in excess two years. Cough with other BP med's. Ins required I try cheaper med, but cough returned after one week on other BP med. Went back on name brand Cozaar and cough disappeared. Hope this generic works as well as name brand.

High blood pressure.

High blood pressure. I have been taking Cozaar ( Losartan ) and I started to experience intense itching that felt like hives ( although you couldn't see any welts ) and I would get this in the evening. I had a dime size rash on my arm. I noticed only a few reviews mentioned the itching. Has anyone else experienced this? You can't directly answer my question on here but please do a review so that others will know that it could be a common effect from the medicine. I also have achy muscles from it. Going to hear from the doctor within an hour. Will post again soon Ann7
