Q. Epleran 25mg Tablet is a potassium-sparing diuretic. Does this mean that I will have more potassium in my body? Will it be beneficial for me?

Q. I had been using Losartan for quite some time and was tolerating it well. Now my doctor has prescribed me Epleran 25mg Tablet along with Hydrochlorothiazide. I want to know why he just could not add Epleran 25mg Tablet with Losartan?

It could be possible that Losartan was not able to control your blood pressure adequately.
