When I first started taking it I had horrible headaches, I could barely function from them so started taking it at night and haven't had any more problems ......my advice take it at night and see if that helps.

Many bp issues are no more than food sensitivities. Most doctors are clueless about nutrition so they just medicate you. The best way to tell is if your blood pressure is perfectly normal at times and then very elevated at other times. This is something you are eating. You need to do food sensitivity testing and monitor what you're eating closely.

To whom are you responding? Coughing is absolutely NOT an allergic reaction to Losinopril. It indicates an inability of the kidneys to excrete the byproducts called kinins, so they go to the lungs!

I had the same issue until I started taking a Vitamin D supplement -- then it went away. Check with your doctor to determine if you are Vitamin D deficient. If so, that might be your problem.

Re: shar (# 10) 
Has your doctor tested your PTH (parathyroid ) levels? Your symptoms could all be explained (as my similar ones were) by a non-cancerous parathyroid (NOT thyroid) adenoma (or enlargement). The diagnosis can be suggested first by a blood test, and then confirmed by a Dexascan and possibly a nulcear medicine scan as follow up. Once removed, in a minimally invasive surgery, depression, fatigue, digestive issues, acid reflux, and several other seemingly unrelated symptoms will be reversed!

Take lisinopril right before going to bed at night. This will keep you from experiencing the side effects that you mentioned.

FINALLY I find your remark! With a severe cough yet OK kidney function, I didn't know why the by-products of Lisinipril and Norvast weren't being excreted, but going instead to the lungs. I take a fair amount of Tylenol and ibuprofin. The potassium is good to know about too. THANKS

Edema (swelling, water retention) may be a result of other issues for you medically. It can be summer heat, inactivity, a poor diet, poor circulation, weakening of the valves in the blood vessels of the legs, and so on. You need to see your doctor again.

Hi! They had me on too much lisinopril(60) mg.. That was one 20 mg three times a day. I was coughing so bad and having very bad asthmatic attacks. My liver Dr discovered this ..I'm now down to one 20mg, one Atenlol, and one diaretic. Little, to no coughing, and very few asthma attacks. I'd check it out if I were you!

I am on 5mg. Regular pill, I don't have to cut a 10mg in half. It may be because I'm still considered "pediatric" though
