I was on Lisinopril for 4 months. I had some coughing, the gag reflex, and a general feeling of malaise. My depression was bad at times and I imagined myself committing suicide more than once. I also began to grind my teeth at night. I have been off of the poison for 8 days and all side effects have subsided except for the teeth grinding. My teeth and jaws ache all the time. I had never experienced that problem before. I too went to the ER in the middle of the night about 2 months ago because I was sure I was having a heart attack or stroke. I finally made an appointment with a therapist 3 weeks ago to deal with the depression. She told me about Lisinopril side effects and I quit taking it. I owe her my life. I feel re-born. I am so happy to be alive!!!!

i was given vasotec by mistake instead of my regular vesicare(for bladder issues due to MS). I already have low blood pressure, but developed blurry vision, EXTREME fatigue, and of course hypotension. I thought all of this was an exacerbation of my MS, but now have it figured out. no more vasotec for me!

Hello Everybody-
Just writing to send thanks to everyone who has shared their hard times on this forum post-Yasmin. I was on the pill for 7 months (the first four of which were fine) until I got tired of my life feeling so out of control and finally gave them up. I just kind of snapped one day and have not been the same since. I read some of these posts about the depression, psychoticness and uncontrollable crying, and I think for a minute that I wrote them. It's been almost three months since I stopped Yasmin, but I can't really tell if I'm getting any better. I hear three months is supposed to be the turn-around point, but that marker is quickly approaching, and I guess I'm hoping for a miracle. To the girl who posted a while back about blurry vision and eye troubles, I've got eye pain/pressure and difficulty wearing contacts. I never attributed the eye issues to Yasmin, but maybe... Well, I guess that's all. Good luck to everyone who is in the same boat as I am... I hear it gets better from here, but I can't be sure.

My son has been taking Singular as well as Advair and Zyrtec and Nasonix for the past 6 months. He is doing so well. He has not had to go to emergency, he has not been sick, and he has not had mood swings. If you look at the prescription information that comes with Singular, you can see what the side effects can be. My recommendation is to take your child off of them if they have a side effect. I contacted my Dr. and Merck is studying only 1 case with a child that had side effects, but they did not say if this child was on other Psych medicine at the same time. The 2 psych meds that have shown a bad interaction with Singular are Phenobarbital and Rifanpin (spelling may be wrong). With all the posts I have read, very few people indicate if they are taking other medications at the same time as Singular. My suggestion is that you consult your Dr. and then send your case to Merck for more studies. If all you are doing is posting on the web, you are not solving this issue with the makers of the medication.
