Hello, Kelly! How are you?

The reason for that is due to the fact that Black Cohosh can also lower blood pressure, thus, it depends on where yours is with the Lisinopril and if your doctor approves of you taking it. In some case, it could cause it go too low, which may be dangerous.

Lisinopril is classified by the FDA as an ACE inhibitor and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, stomach pain, increased urination and hypotension.

Is there anything else I can help with?
