I can drink a glass of wine in the evening.
I can only say that I do. I wasn't told that it was counter indicated. No ill effects so far.
Drinking alcohol can further lower your blood pressure and may increase certain side effects of lisinopril.
Do not use salt substitutes or potassium supplements while taking lisinopril, unless your doctor has told you to.
Avoid getting up too fast from a sitting or lying position, or you may feel dizzy. Get up slowly and steady yourself to prevent a fall.
