I'm glad I found this site. Now I have a clue as to why I have been so tired and depressed. I have only been taking 10mg of lisinopril for two weeks and my bp has been running 138/63 to 120/81. Not too high as far as I was concerned. My doctor scolded me for taking St Johns Wort, but even an increased dosage has not helped this bout of depression. After she scolded me and I read up on it, it appears that her major concern was that it was over the counter and she couldn't get a piece of the pie for prescribing another med. I don't like to take meds and the only rx I've taken in the last 30 yrs has been synthroid for 2 years. I consider myself healthy, have never been overweight and exercise regularly. I actually came here to check about dry hair, since that is my major issue right now. I'll be on the lookout for the other side effects listed on this site. Has anyone else noticed dry dead looking hair?
