I am reading the majority of your side effects re: Lisinopril, and I too am suffering from a nagging cough that keeps me up a bit when I am sleeping. BUT, please look at the side effects v. the benefits before you take yourself off the medication. High Blood Pressure is serious!!! I had a friend pass away quite quickly because he was not taking his HBP medicine like his Dr. prescribed. Trust me, I don't like my cough either, but given the alternative, I'll suffer with a little hacking.
