... with my doctors blessing. It has been fine (120/78) since then but seem to have gained a lot of weight for no reason... Could this be a side effect??
I quit taking Lisinopril several months ago due to my blood pressure becoming extremely low(85/58)?

That's why I wanted to stop Lisinopril , my blood pressure getting too low at night and I also use Amlodipine. I tried to stop the drug but third day had a fast irregular heart beat so I went back on it. Did you experience any side affects stopping it?

Hi,I'm sorry tht your having the problems your having,but it seems to me only because I take the lisinopril,you may have gained wait because of your body swelling up with fluid(fluid weight),did your lisinopril have the diuretic in it? Mine does&lord knows I'd swell so much if I didn't have tht Med n the bloodpressure Med,but if ur doing good not taking the lisinopril,but having trouble w/weight gain,if its true water weight gain,then your Dr can prescribe you a diuretic alone. I hope IV helped&I pray you find your peace. GOD BLESS
