I have been experiencing gritty eyes recently and it seems to be happening a couple of hours after taking Losartan for BP? Could they be affecting me like this? Does anyone know?

When I was taking Losartan I developed a 'dry' chest, and cough. When I caught Orange County Flu in the first year I sounded like a crocodile breathing badly. My daughter in law is a physician and she told me about Valsartan. Losartan seems to have a drying up effect on some people, and it definitely did on me.
Go see your physician. OR - are you doing a lot of computer work now? Staring, without blinking can cause your eyes' lubricating glands to atrophy. (Not the salty tear glands, the lubricating ones.)
Whatever the cause, consider getting some lubricating drops for your eyes. Optive 'Refresh' is good, but there's a whole range. Avoid ones that 'wash' the eye, because they'll remove whatever oils you have.
