Because of insurance coverage this was cheaper than the Diovan I had been taking. I tried Lisinopril but got the bad "tickle cough" many get. Soon after increasing my dosage because it wasn't effective enough I got a very irritating cough that would not do away. I received allergy tests and chest xray which cost me $700 and were neg. Dr. wanted to do tests for GERD and sinus xrays next. ...

I had multiple side effects, not knowing I was having them ... My doctor kept saying "You know as you get older these things happen" I was confused... SIDE EFFECT... Finally after 3 years I took myself off of it.... Its been a few years now and I still have some problems from this drug... In Great Brittian It is used as a last avenue in treatment for high blood pressure...

This medicine worked well for me for 6 years, then 1 night I almost died from the Lisinopril. I contracted angioedema. Imeddiately was put in ICU and almost had to have a trach done. Now I can never take any medicines with Pril at the end.

Iam on Triameterene, Amalodipine, Bystolic and just about a mouth ago my doctor also added Lisinopril , now I have developed dizziness and I have fallen twice. I called my doctor and he decreased the Lisinopril to just 5mg once a day. Still dizzy.
