I started on Lisinop/HCTZ and have only taken two pills and today which was after taking my second pill I was having trouble getting a full clear breath and have been itching so I have decided to stop before I have to go to ER. I figure just two pills it will be ok to stop before soemthing bad was to happen am I right?

I've taken Lisonop/HCTZ 10-12.5 (1 a day) for 2 years. I do have occasional chest pains and difficult breathing. It does cause severe hunger, so I take it just before eating. If I take on an empty stomach, I get huge emotional swings. It seems to overall have a positive affect on lowering my BP, but it still jumps around. Should I increase my dosage for better BP regulation? What does lisinop do to decrease BP?

I have been on lisinop/hctz since 10-12.5 September of '08 and and had no side effects whatsoever, other than a couple of extra bathroom trips a day.

The HCTZ in the lisinop is a diuteric or fluid pill, so it would cause more frequent trips to the bathroom.

I would think how meds affect one all so has something to do with ones age . For sure ones body chemistry.

I also took Hyzaar previously and switched to Lisinop/HCTZ in July2008. I have noticed an increasingly severe cough since the end of September. My physician has prescribed Singulair & then Tessalon Perle to allow me to get relief at night. Sometimes I cough so much I almost vomit, usually only some phlegm, and I see stars at the edge of my vision. The pharmacist says the cough is very common to this drug so tomorrow I am going to get something different...or else!

I was put in lisinip-hctz20 and started coughing badly. I was not informed of this side effect by my dr.but saw in on television,,,I visited my dr and he took me off of it immediately. The cough stopped as soon as I was off the med. And,I was told to never take it again.

It took me two months to make the connection with the new BP med Lisinop/HCTZ and having a servere cough and constant sinus drainage. I would cough so hard that I would throw up. It took 3 trips to the doctor and my suggesting that it started at the same time as the new meds for the decision by the doctor that it was the BP med. I had the cough for a good 2 weeks after coming off the medicine......NOW no cough or getting sick!
