I started taking this garbage in May of 2009. I would go to the Dr and my BP would be 180/110. Let me say im still on Lisinopril BUT stopping tomorrow. Let me tell you my story. 35 year old male, diabetic and HBP. After years of not taking care of my self i went to the doc, i started taking Lisinopril. With in weeks i got a hacking cough and my BP was still crazy high. They up'ed my dose to 20MG and then hell started. Constant blinding chest pain, strange electrical shocks in my back and head, went to ER and was admitted, they said i may have had a PAST hart attack Weeks of in and out of the hospital a 3 day stay in the cardiac ICU! Then i had a CT angiogram with dye and that reviled MY HART WAS FINE. I still had this horrible pain in the chest and legs and hands and my gut, electrical shocks and night mares and freak out for no reason at all. Problems with erections and slow hart beat. Unreal panic attack that i think i was about to die or GO insane. The past few days i have had intense pains in my upped back and gut. I went to have some blood work done to see how my new diet is doing. All the numbers were amazing, BUT my LIVER IS HURTING! Now i do not see a doctor for 5 day to review it all BUT i know this pill has mad my life hell for the past 2 months. MY LIVER WAS FINE BEFORE i took this pill. I was able to make my diabetes VANISH with diet, i must try that with HBP. STAY AWAY FROM THIS PILL.

I must also say tonight is the worst i felt in years, this pill is a nightmare. The DR's and my wife think im going nuts. I found this site AND i see im not alone. I just hope all this crap goes away. You know the crazy part, i felt fine with BP at 180/100 and i know thatch bad, but with BP at 130/80 i want to crawl up in a ball and die. F this pill and the people at the hospital who think im losing it. THE PILL HAS BEEN MAKING ME SICK AND CRAZY! Im so angry right now. I just have to vent. Sorry every on but to know all this time i was not going mad and the side effects are real.. its SHOCKING. To sit in hospital and have the DR's look you in the eye and say you have had a hart attack then to only find out your hart is fine and you still have crushing pain, UNREAL. My poor wife, i have been making her nuts, friends and family nuts. Terrible stuff. BAN IT NOW.

Everything you are feeling is true about this drug. It is a nightmare and almost literally killed me.
There are over 14 million people in this country that take this drug.
This poison gave me heart failure and kidney failure. Of course my doctor wanted to blame something else. Funny my heart and kidneys were ok until I started taking this drug.
There are people reporting that their brains are shrinking, being falsely diagnosed with ALzheimers, etc, etc.
