Is lisinopril 20-12.5 much different than the 20 mg? If not, I can get the 20 mg for free at the drug store, but I have to pay for the 20-12.5.

Yes, the active ingredients are different. One contains Lisinopril with Hydrochlorothiazide, while the other just contains Lisinopril and you should take the one your doctor feels is best for you.

The FDA lists the typical side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, increased urination, dehydration, and hypotension.

Which one has been prescribed for you?
