Lisinopril Itch

Just took my 1st dose ever of Lisinopril and first noticed feet itching. Have slight itch all over. I'm not taking another dose reading here. Plus some of these people, maybe they should know about "toxic epidermal necrolysis" ? even a 10 in a million chance after viewing that disease, I wouldn't take anything that could cause it.

There are risks associated with every medication, though some can be frightening, it is just the nature of adding a chemical to the body to try and correct a problem. You will not find any medication that is entirely risk free.

The typical side effects are listed by the FDA as possibly including nausea, dizziness, increased urination, hypotension, and headache.

Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a risk with most medications, and some medical procedures.

However, if you have high blood pressure, or a heart condition, you have a much higher risk of experiencing complications from it, such as heart attack, stroke, and possibly death.

Have you consulted your doctor? There are other ones you can try.

What condition was being treated?
