I've been taking Lisinopril-hctz (10mg-12.5mg) for 9yrs and just started getting headaches. My Dr today upped the dose to 20mg. Will I notice anything different like side effects or anything like racing heart, etc.? I'm just nervous when it comes to new meds... Thanks.

I started this medication less than a month ago and since then I noticed the fatigue and a pressure around the back of my head at about ear level. I went to my doctor because i thought my blood pressure was too low one day (109/63). They said It was ok and to start taking it at night. So I have. Now if I get 5 hours of sleep a night I'm lucky. I go to sleep around 11 and if I wake Up (usually 4-5 hours later) I toss until time to get up for work. Last night I was awakened 1 hour after I fell asleep, took a pill to help me fall back asleep, and still tossed all night. Any ideas on what I can do?

Yes, those can all be side effects of Lisinopril with Hydrochlorthiazide, which is commonly used to treat high blood pressure and cardiac conditions.

Another thing that you do have to be careful of is dehydration, since the Hydrochlorothiazide is a diuretic that helps remove fluid from the body. Most of the symptoms you mentioned can also be from dehydration, so you have to make sure you are taking in enough fluids to keep your body balanced out.
