Well, so far after trying Bystolic, for ummm about 5 days and feeling like crap from that med and now after reading this as my Dr. now wants me to try this Lisinopril! I think I will try a natural alternative, I started taking Bee Pollen this past Sat., Google it, you will be amazed at all the benefits of Bee Pollen, I was!! I think I will wait and see how that works, mordern meds seem to cause alot more harm then good not to mention posion the body! Which, in turn, causes you to need more drugs, these dug companies are no dummies after all!! The sicker they keep ya the more money they make not to mention the more bonus money the Dr's get for writing "their" drug of the month, that the drug rep pused the day before! So this prescription will sit here I will NOT take it, I will find a natual alternative. It is your body, listen to it, treat it right and it will treat you right! And to the person that said "my Dr. wpn't take me off Lisinopril or change to another drug" Ok since when did your Dr. own you? I say run, find another Dr. If this Dr. cares so little about your health that he dismisses how bad you feel!! I'd won't not trust this person with my health! Thank you but no thanks I will take my chances and try the Bee Pollen!!

I started taking Lisinopril for high blood pressure January 6, 2010. The side effects are hot flashes memory issues my sex drive and sleep issues and depression but I'm not sure if this is due to the medication as far as depression. I believe in alternative medications other than pharmaceuticals if anyone knows what to take other than this please let me know thank you. I also take vitamins multivitamins bee pollen royal jelly and omega fish oils and hemp seeds as well.

Hi, its me again, just wanted to share this with everyone. I contacted the FDA in November of 2009 informing them of the dangerous and poisonous side effects of this medication Lisinopril, how it took control and nearly claimed my life. It is Feb 2010 and still no response. There are individuals out there just like you and I who are suffering from this posionous drug. We who have experienced the side effects from this drug know exactly what it can do to your boy and time is critical to our sisters and brothers who are still taking and suffering from this posionous drug. We must join together asone and get this medication (Lisinopril) off the market. We put our trust and faith in our doctors and pharmacists to take care of us, but they have let us down big time. We didn't derserve to suffer the way we have from this medication and I refuse to believe that the majority of our doctors and pharmacists didnt know about the dangerous side effects from this medication and we must not stand by and watch our love ones suffer the way we have from taking this medication. If we must go all the way to Washington, D.C, CNN news, Fox News, we must let the world know that lisinopril is poisonous and deadly. To the doctors and pharmacists who cared enough to inform your patients about the side effects of this medication, God Bless you, thank you, thank you, we all thank you. P.S. Will someone tell mehow did lisinopril pass FDA inspection????

Lisinopril Chemical Information

lisinopril - A synthetic peptide derivate and long-acting angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor with antihypertensive activity. Lisinopril specifically and competitively inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme thereby decreasing the formation of the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II. This leads to a diminished vasopressor activity. In addition, angiotensin II-stimulated aldosterone secretion by adrenal cortex is decreased which results in a decrease of sodium and water retention and an increase of serum potassium.
