User Reviews for Lisinopril

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: I have been taking lisinopril for 1 1/2 months. I have developed Raynauds symptoms. Fingertips occasionally turning white and numb, toes do the same during cold weather especially. It was good to know some of you have fingertip and toes circulation issues too. Lisinopril is very effective in reducing my blood pressure. I take 10mg/daily.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: Developed very low back, pelvic and hip pain that affected my mobility. I had difficulty sitting and bending without severe pain. I took this medicine for 6 days before realizing that it was the cause of my symptoms. I have now been off of it for 3 days and almost all of the discomfort is gone.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: I have been taking lisinopril for over 20 years (I'm now 71) and it has controlled my blood pressure very nicely. I started out taking 5mg and with aging gradually worked up to 40mg. I have not noticed any negative side affects. This drug has done wonders for me.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: Although this drug has successfully lowered my blood pressure, I have experienced a cough that has continued to get worse. This is not just a slight nuisance cough that the doctor suggested might happen. This is a constant cough. (I have met 2 other people with this same problem.) I have stopped taking Lisinopril and will question my doctor about it.

lisinopril for Heart Failure: This medication was extemely effective in lowering my blood pressure, and reducing symptoms related to congestive heart failure. But, after a few days I developed a constantly stuffy nose, and after a few weeks suffered significant hair loss. The hair loss was sufficient for me to stop this medication.

I was taking lisinopril for a week, but my Doctor switched me to another medicine as I had extreme throat tickle and cough. It did help with my blood pressure though. Went from 140s/high 90s to below 120/high 80s in 1 week.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: Blood pressure droped from 140's over low 100's to 120's over mid 80's in just days. So far no side effects. Doctor said there may be a dry cough but they could change to a related medication that would not cause the cough, which would be more expensive.

lisinopril for Heart Failure: My Mom has congestive heart failure now and for 2 days her doctor gave her 5mg of Lisinopril. She seemed much more alert and less fatigued.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: I am currently aged 55. I am a little overweight for my height but have always been very active and workout at least twice a week. I have never had high blood pressure or any symptoms. During my last physical, my blood pressure was in the 150/90s. My Doctor prescribed 10mg of lisinopril. I was pleased to find out that it also had no side effects. After only 2 days of taking the medication, my blood pressure was back down in the 120/80s range. Seems to work for me so far.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: I was prescribed this medication for hypertension. At first I was given a dose of 10 mg and at that dose it didn't help that much. Then the doctor raised it to 40 mg and it works perfectly. Instant results.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: I recently switched from Atenolol to Lisinopril and I feel much better. No more dizziness and my BP is great 120/78. The only thing is that after a few weeks I developed a dry cough. It's just been a few days but I might contact my doctor about it soon. I thought it was allergies but now I think it's the lisinopril.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: The drug caused me to have breathing difficulties after being on it for 3 years. I developed what is known as hypersensitivity. If you have asthma-like symptoms, it may be from Lisinopril.

I am very young and have been taking it for a couple of years now. I can tell when I forget to take it. I feel sick and have headaches all the time. Lisinopril really helped me get back to the normal active life I used to have.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: Have been on 20mg of this drug for 6 months. Blood pressure was 175/120. Blood pressue is no 120/85. The dry cough has gone away for the most part. I haven't lost any weight but then again, I like to eat. I feel better and definitely notice when I have not taken the drug for a couple of days. It's keeping the blood pressure in check.

lisinopril for High Blood Pressure: I have been using Lisinopril 10mg for about a year. Initially I had dry coughing day and night (not to the extreme where it kept me awake at night), but enough that I thought I had an allergy or common cold and then after reading the information on this site I found that coughing is a common symptom with this drug. I also had blurred vision, cramps in my feet and hands and some headaches too, but after including an hour of combined aerobics and stretching exercises 3-4 days per week most of the symptoms are now reduced to the occasional headaches. Taking the pill with plenty of water and with food also reduced the blurred vision. In a year I have lost about 35lbs. Blood pressure and cholesterol levels are normal and my doctor has recently lowered my dosage from 10 to 5mg.
