where intractable cough
not cured by dose alteration

Dear all
Just writing an essay, and wondered what you all thought of losartan, and
other angiotensin II receptor antagonists? Does it really avoid the ACE
inhibitor cough? Any nasty experiences?
All ideas gratefully received, as the essay seems to have come to a bit of
a standstill, although that's probably my fault for trying to write it on a
Friday afternoon.
TIA
BFN
Nick.
