When I was diagnosed, they took me off Losartan, so I just assumed...
Today my md added it back.

Is losartan safe for people with myasthenia gravis?

Losartan, a medication commonly used to treat high blood pressure, isn't specifically mentioned in the available information about medications that interact with or worsen MG symptoms.

The search results focus on antibiotics, antidepressants, immunosuppressants, and certain supplements that may affect MG. Blood pressure medications like losartan aren't listed among the drugs that typically cause problems for people with MG.

However, this doesn't mean it's automatically safe for everyone. It's really important to discuss any new medication with your MG specialist, especially since:

- People with MG often take multiple medications that could interact with each other
- Individual responses to medications can vary
- Your healthcare team needs a complete picture of everything you're taking

Your MG specialist can review your specific situation, current medications, and health conditions to determine if losartan is appropriate for you. They may also monitor you more closely when starting any new medication to watch for any unexpected effects on your MG symptoms.
