Has anyone experienced weight gain from lisinopril 10 mgs?

I take amiloride for high blood pressure and it also contains a diuretic.
When I first started taking it, i dropped 30 pounds in 3 months! I was definitely bloated. Ask you Doctor

I have been on this for over a year, I have gained over 20 pounds & I work out & mostly eat healthy. I've also had loss of voice at days end as if I have laryngitis, had to go to an Ent to make sure I did not have throats cancer, very disappointed my primary doctor did not catch this!

I do not know what we are going to do. I have taken lispinerol (sp?) and am now taking metoprolol. I have gone from 109 lbs to 139+ in less than a year. Not gonna happen!! I have increased my exercise, although I hardly eat, feel exhausted/fatigued. For the past three days, I have monitored my pressure about every 2 hrs, it is all over the place... never a normal 120/80 or close, always upwards. I discussed with my cardiologist my symptoms: fatigue (I work PT and am 67 years old), and my weight gain, her reply... get more exercise. Simply because I do work, and am fatigued, she is cutting my dose 1/2. There must be a better choice. I refuse to be a fat old lady with high BP (stuff ain't working!!) just packing on pounds. Perhaps this would be a great opportunity to explore an answer for people with anemia. I know... find a better Doc. Please note, I am 67 and have only gained this weight in the past year... weight has always been an average of 100-115. I did not simply turn 67 and start pigging out :) Good luck and health to all.

I am 53 years old and recently started taking Lisinopril and have gained weight around my waist, it is exstreamly uncomfortable. I've also experienced stomach pain and sickness every morning. Should I be concerned??

I am SO glad I found this forum!! I've been beating myself up the last few months trying to figure out why I've gained almost 15 pounds in 3 MONTHS. I'm 38, very active with two jobs, I go to the gym approximately 4-6 times per week, eat okay for the most part yet I found myself gaining and gaining with each month that passed. Three months ago I started taking Lisinopril because I was about to undergo an elective surgery. The surgeon would not operate on me unless my BP was under control. I thought nothing of it and agreed to start taking the medication. Well, this morning I had an AH HA moment when I put the timeline together with my weight gain and I am just dumbfounded it took me this long to figure it out! I am going to get off of this medication and start drinking hibiscus tea... crossing my fingers the weight comes off.
