I have been taking Lisinopril since Jan 07. Since I started taking the medication I have noticed blurred vision along with floaters. My eyes feel as if they have sand paper in them constantly. My stomach is bloated and hurts. My joints and muscles ache constantly. I have had several episodes of confusion. TIRED!, I am tired every day, having to take daily naps. I sleep 8-10 hours at night and wake up exausted! I feel unmotivated because I am tired most of the time. I also have the constant tickle in my throat along with a cough. I woke up the other night coughing so much I left the room so not to disturb my husband. I am glad I found this site. I might have continued to attribute these side effects to getting older, not quite over the cold I had 3 weeks ago., eyes are bothering me because I work on the computer all day. I never had these symptoms until I began to use the Lisinopril.

In replying to all the comments posted, My doc put me on this poison about a month ago, the first week started with a hacking cough along with bloatness of stomach. After a week I went back to the doctor, and he took me off the pill for 2 weeks, stating that if it is the pill the coughing will stop. The coughing is horrible still after the 2 wk period. Today, 5/7/07, I am suffering with the eye problem, the left eye felt like I had poured gasoline it. The tickling in my thoat along with the cough and watering eyes. Cannot drive down the highway somedays without pulling over to vomit. This medicine needs to be taken off the market. I share in your pains and thoughts about this issue. I feel like we are test mice and something needs to be done about it.
