Added ingredient symptoms and conditions

I have been taking lisinopril/hctz 10/12.5 mg tablets for about a year now. I did get the cough for awhile but it only flares up now and again. I do remember really rough night coughs for awhile where I felt like gagging but they have passed. My bp is where they want it and I have going to the gym for the past 6 months with no ill effects. If I can lose at least half the weight my doctor wants me to lose I am going to talk to him about lowering the dosage or drop the added ingredient. He also put me on a thyroid med too. I hate pills!
