ok, i have been on lisinopril 10mg hctz for about a year now. sometimes i feel the cough, sometimes my throat fells tight , but one thing that scared the hell out of me just in the last few weeks was a sudden bald spot on the top of my head, granted i am 50, but i have a reasonable head of hair, i also, to my surprise found a little bald spot usually where a man does not go bald down toward the back of the head. I just walked by my haircut lady to ask her if i had this bald spot two months ago and she said no way and to hurry and see a dermatologist, i am truly thinking its this dam drug, anyone else experience sudden hair loss in strange places on the head? thanks.

I have a spot on the top of my head about center top. It has a lumpy mole like thing about an inch big. My hair has been breaking off and coming out for a while. I have stopped the lisinopril 20/25 mg. I am montering my BP closely and so for ok. Im not supposed to see my docter for a check up until spring. Im not going in now because of the flu fear. This drug is poisin for many people. I've lost the 2 left fingers on my left hand. There as dead as a hammer. My feet are swelled double by the end of every day. Good luck.
