Lisinopril (5mg) for aortic valve disorder

After open heart surgery for valve replacement and 1 bypass, my breastbone had been sawn through and I found coughing and sneezing very painful. Lisinopril for high blood pressure. It gave me a dry, tickly cough and that's terrible after this kind of operation.

Lisinopril (10mg) for high blood pressure

I got this pill for high blood pressure. Causes a tickle cough, very annoying, especially when it’s not known as a side effect.

Lisinopril (5 mg) for high blood pressure

I've had all 3 different kinds for high blood pressure. Each one had its own side effects. Now I've got this one and I thought it was over. My blood pressure was sitting really nicely at 124/82, but the feeling of pressure on my chest hasn't changed. I've also got a dry cough as well which isn't good for you so if it carries on I think I will be stopping with it.

Lisinopril (10mg) for high blood pressure

I coughed so much I thought I must have lung cancer. Luckily enough the GP was able to switch my medicines quickly and I was no longer coughing up stuff.

Lisinopril (5mg) for high blood pressure

I started taking lisinopril because I was no longer responding to atenolol. I had been taking that for years without any problems. Most of all, in the first weeks after starting it, I had loads of headaches. Then as the weeks progressed I got gradually more depressed. Normally I'm really positive and proactive. If anything happened, though, I was totally knocked for six, could hardly bear it an...

Lisinopril (10mg) for high blood pressure

Since February, I've been given lisinopril, made by Sandoz. For years I've had a different brand. But since I've been taking this brand, I've had loads of stomach complaints and all day long a pressing feeling on my chest.

Since I've been taking this medicine in I've been nauseous all day long, the GP reckoned I should try taking just half a tablet but still nauseous.

Lisinopril (10mg) for migraine

Got this to stop my migraines. I've noticed that it works well. In migraines you retain too much water. The first few days I needed to go to the toilet quite often but I noticed that straight after, the pressure in my head was a bit less. Also a bit of an irritating dry cough but this went away of its own accord after a few months. Now, I can also eat and drink things which used to trigger my m...
