I'm a 45 year old woman, recently my doctor 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 headiness 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.

good choice to go off of the med. Be patient it will take a few twistes and curves before it chills out. I don't know how long you took it but i am still dizzy and it has been 3 months so be patient everyone is different. It does take some time. I also had a severe reaction my dizzyness was 24/7 and very bad until i got some Meclazine and that helped tremendously, you can get the generic 25mg over the counter at the pharmacy but don't take it too long as the body can get used to it and when you stop taking it the dizzy may come back at least that is what my doc. says.

Best of luck, and don't worry to much---

Put your trust in God and it will always work out.
