Enalapril - Anyone else have esophagus or throat problems from this drug?

Thank you Mary632009. Yes, HBP, so was concerned when told to stop taking the med. that was prescribed to control it. After MANY ups and downs, I was able to re-start the Enalapril. I believe I stumbled onto the cause of the esophageal spasms. I was taking a drug called Alendronate (generic for Boniva) for osteoporosis. When I was taking Boniva, the spasms were occasional, not regular. After changing to Alendronate, they increased in frequency. Checking online for side effects of Alendronate, I discovered one is esophageal problems. Alendronate is taken weekly instead of monthly like Boniva. I've discontinued use, so we'll see what the following week brings. Thank you for your response, have a wonderful week.

I am glad you found the culprit, but if you have osteoporosis, you must attend to that also. They do have a once a month injection that shouldn't bother you. Don't mess around with osteoporosis. I'm on Forteo already, & it's not fun sticking yourself eveyday. The doctor for your blood pressure could try something different too. There are so many HBP drugs out there. I wish you well, & let me know how you are doing. ...
