Because losartan potassium is an ARB, it can theoretically cause hyponatremia. However, no reports on the occurrence of losartan potassium-induced hyponatremia are available in literature on PubMed. Moreover, no reports on hyponatremia induced by other ARBs such as varsaltan, candesartan, and telmisartan are available on PubMed.

Losartan potassium and hydrochlorothiazide contains hydrochlorothiazide which can cause hypokalemia, hyponatremia and hypomagnesemia. Hypomagnesemia can result in hypokalemia which may be difficult to treat despite potassium repletion. Losartan potassium and hydrochlorothiazide also contains losartan which can cause hyperkalemia.

Many medications can cause hyponatremia. Losartan can induce hypovolemic hyponatremia secondary to hypoaldosteronism, whereas omeprazole can lead to euvolemic hyponatremia secondary to SIADH, although rarely. Furosemide is also known to induce hypovolemic hyponatremia.

Hydrochlorothiazide inhibits the Na/Cl pump in the distal tubule, thereby increasing sodium excretion: 10 A single administration of hydrochlorothiazide can cause hyponatremia. 11 These reports indicate that losartan potassium/hydrochlorothiazide can theoretically cause hyponatremia.
