I am 44 years old, and I have high blood pressure for 4 years now. 6 months ago my doctor put me on LISINOPRIL (10 mg), it was ok for the first two month's then one day I noticed my hair started falling out little-by-little every time I would washed it. I also am forgetting things that i am supposed to do or I can't seem to remember where i put things, I also have been having anxiety feelings sometimes when I am shopping; I want to leave the store. My throat has been hurting and i have to urinate often. I am getting headache's. I went to my doctor I thought it could be stress or maybe a thyroid problem, I had test done and everything came back normal. My doctor told me it was stress. The symptoms are not going away. Today I decided to see if it could have something to do with my medication I have been taking. So I logged on to side effect of LISINOPRIL I could not believe it, there it was in your e-mail my symptoms. You don't know how relieved I was, I finally found out what was wrong with me. I Have never experienced any problem's, I have always been healthy and happy! So i know it is the side effects of LISINOPRIL, I am seeing my doctor tomorrow and changing my medication. Thank you all for your e-mail's and your experience's with this drug. Sign happy Camille.

I'm a 45 year old woman, recently my Dr put me on LISINOPRIL (10 mg) after 30 days on the Meds, I have dizziness while laying down & turning in bed. It only last for about 15 seconds, I have some light headness when I bend to pick up a a basket of Laundry. My doctor has taken me of the meds for now. I continue to take Toprol.xl (100mg), LISINOPRIL did help with my BP, but toady is my first day off it & I'm feeling anxious.

Hello, our stituations are very similar, I thought I was loosing my mind and have a nervous break down. I stopped taking the medicine yesterday, I called my doctor today and had my chart noted. I cannot wait to feel normal again. How long did it take you to feel right again?
GOD BLESS YOU and thanks, V. Kelly
