Somewhat effective at 20mg in lowering pressure readings about 8-10 points both systolic and diastolic. First few months seemed to be sleep inducing.

I had been on Accupril or quinapril 10 for at least 25 years. I had no problems and it kept the blood pressure under control. Last month I was rushed to the hosp. with swelling of my tongue which I now know is a side effect. It can happen any time. It happened again the other night. Drs. advised it can stay in system for 6 weeks. I have changed BP medicine.

The side effects after 10 years or more were a big problem in the midsouth area. Many were sent to the ER.

Took this medication for about 10 years without any side effects. About a year ago, I developed an annoying constant dry cough. Have changed medication and cough disappeared.

IT takes my blood pressure real low then after 4 hours or so pressure goes up. May go as low as 88/66 and up to 160 so i class it as ineffective.

Took 20 mg for 1 year. Have only been able to get BP down to around 155/84. Made me so tired needed to take at bedtime. I also always have some slight swelling of hands and around eye area. Stopped taking and tried other BP meds but now back on Accupril as side effects on other BP Meds worse. Back to square 1 now.

I have had type 1 diabetes for over 37 years and my kidneys were leaking protein so my dr put me on Accupril. Because I did'nt have high blood pressure, I had to take 2.5mg to start off with and now I'm on 5mg and don't think I am having any major hassles. Have developed a cough that sometimes interferes with my eating and makes me a bit breathless. Not too worried though. I'm 41 and had a life expectancy of 10 so not doing too bad lol
