I'm a 46 yr old white male that was prescribed Lisinopril, I took it for only 5 days (at night) the 5th dose sent me over the edge, I ended up in the ER with a swollen lip and tight throat. I stopped this med right then and there. I was also experiencing HIGH anxiety with this drug. I called my doctor and she said keep taking it (can you believe that?) because my body was just getting used to it, and that it would get better in time. Im in the medical field and couldn't believe my ears when she told me that. Im feeling better now that im off it, its only been 5 days now but im getting a lot better. PLEASE don't take this drug!!!
