I've been taking lisinopril for about 3 weeks. And suddenly started with severe diarrhea. I can't eat anything. I took some anti diarrheal medicine and that's not helping. Food doesn't stand my stomach longer than an hour very uncomfortable. What should I do?

Hello, Shannon! How are you?

Diarrhea can be a side effect of this medication, as reported by the FDA, but it shouldn't be that severe. You should contact your doctor as this likely isn't the right medication for you and you'll likely need to try a different one.

Other side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headache and increased urination.

Is that the only new medication you've been taking?
