Comment:
Wonderful reduction of b/p!! Developed cough, throat irritation and frightening episode of throat actually "swelled shut." No more Lisinopril for me. Too bad. Great drug. I am a nurse and have seen rare side effects in patients.

My blood pressure has been greatly reduced and has remained fine since I started taking this medication. Unfortunately, I also have an annoying cough which comes and goes.

I had terrible aching muscles - in my arms and legs - and was exhausted all the time - unlike my usual high energy level and slept poorly

The medication seems to work well. However since taking it I've noticed a decrease in urine. This I plan to discuss with my doctor on my next visit. I noticed also eye puffiness and someswelling in my legs.
