I'm a 46 year old, Caucasian female, average weight. I was on Lisinopril 10mg once a day for 3 months. I'm in relatively good health (except for a slight increase in B/P). During that time I experienced: gagging cough (especially at night) depression anxiety (mild) no menstrual cycle (it came back 4 days after stopping the drug) dry nasal passage (including polyps)--this seems to be clearing up with Fluticasone. feeling of an irregular heartbeat I did go to my doctor and he said that the side effects are common; however, he said that this medication shouldn't effect my menstrual cycle... well, it did. He did put me on another B/P medication and told me to stop the Lisinopril. I'm posting this because it's been hard to find anything out about a lack of cycle for women who were taking this drug. I wanted to share my experience to let you know that you're not alone. Always follow your instinct with medications you're taking. You know your body best!
