Lisinopril Tablets (Page 4) (Top voted first)

I have been taking Lisinopril 20 mg from manufacturer Lupin for years. My most recent renewal was the same color and Lupin on one side and 20 on other but the pill is half the size of the one I have been getting. Still says Lupin but I am concerned. Anyone notice the difference?

Been taking 10mg of lisinopril for more than 15 years. My last refill came half the size of my previous order and I've been feeling lousy for the past 2 weeks. All of a sudden my normal pressure is now off the charts. Something is very wrong. Have a doctor's appointment tomorrow and plan to get off of these pills.
PS: I have reasonly lost 20 lbs which should have helped lower my pressure not elevate it.

We should all call Lupin and express our side effects and adverse reactions. Flood them with calls. There is power in numbers

this is not correct. Kroger pharmacy gave me the smaller pills also 20 mg. Same color same numbers on pill. They said they must of removed fillers to save cost. I have taken 3. Second day started with nausea, or heartburn. Still have it today. Calling pharmacist

To all those taking the new smaller Lisinopril 10 or 20 mg They changed the pill We all are having problems since they decided to save money and reduce costs They can swear on a stack of Bibles but they changed it and we all are experiencing it Time to change to a different BP pill There are certainly enough of them on the market I am now going with Losartan 50mg twice a day Not doing the job that Lisinopril did but what choice do I have

Don't be a drama queen Barry, your speculation is without merit or manufacturing knowledge. stop trying to scare people. This is no big deal, and NOT causing symptoms.

When the medication size changed I received a pamphlet when I picked up my new scripts telling me of the change. Also said be assured it's the same medication. I also spoke to my Cardiologist about it, he too said it's still the same exact medication. I go to Johns Hopkins Hospital It's a pretty notable Hospital worldwide with top notch Dr's.So I'm pretty sure those that are having symptoms it's not from the change in shape of the same medication and you should make an appointment to go get checked by your Dr.

Since they changed the formulation of Lisinoprol, I started having side effects. I took the new formula for 5 days and then called the doctor's office. My doctor switched me to Losartan 50 mg and it caused swelling of my feet ankles and left leg. Also caused extreme weakness. Had to start taking a diuretic for the swelling. BP was a lot higher so I was switched to ANOTHER medication Norvasc 5 mg. Not tolerating it well either. THIS IS A NIGHTMARE all because Lupin changed the formula. I feel horrible and my energy is non existent.

In follow up to my original oat on July 8, I did call Lupen Pharmaceutical Co the following Monday. I discussed with them the symptoms I had experienced as well as the local pharmacy not informing me of the manufacturer's change. The company appreciated my input , but had no explanation for the adverse reaction. They assured me that the only change they made was making the pill smaller by removing some filler ingredients. Further, I am glad to report that the symptoms of sleepiness I experienced in the beginning have since subsided.

This new pill with some of the binders (inactive) ingredients has changed the way my body is responding. My gastric system has been affected with bloating and gastric upset within 24 hours of taking new smaller size lisiniprol 10 mg. It's not in my head. I've been on the larger pill size for five years and never had a problem.

I am also having issues which I never did until I took the new prescription, called pharmacy and they gave the same song and dance, but this will be coming out and I will be giving Lupin my hospital bills.

I had the same experience. I was able to switch to taking two 5 mg tablets. The 5 mg tablets have not changed at this time. My pharmacist and physician were both able to work together to get the rx changed. It may be worth an ask. I felt better almost immediately. Hope this helps!

Please let me know what you find out from the company I am a PCA for my grandmother and noticed with the smaller 10 mg pill she has been more tired lately I don't know if that's because of medication pill size change or something different? She's 96 years old so it really concerns me!
