Lisinopril is a medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as ACE inhibitors. It works by relaxing blood vessels, which helps to lower blood pressure. This can help reduce the risk of strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. Lisinopril is suitable for adults who have hypertension (high blood pressure) or heart failure. It can also be prescribed to improve survival after a heart attack.
About Lisinopril
Dosage and usage
You should take Lisinopril exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The usual starting dose is 10 mg once a day. Your doctor may adjust your dose based on your response to the medication. The maximum dose is 80 mg per day. Lisinopril can be taken with or without food. It may take a few weeks for you to experience the full benefits of this medication. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule.
What Lisinopril contains
Each Lisinopril tablet contains 5 mg, 10 mg, or 20 mg of lisinopril dihydrate as the active ingredient. The tablets also contain other ingredients such as mannitol, calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate, maize starch, and magnesium stearate.
Side effects
Common side effects of Lisinopril may include dizziness, headache, cough, and fatigue. Serious side effects that require immediate medical attention include signs of high potassium levels (such as muscle weakness or irregular heartbeat), severe dizziness, and fainting. If you experience symptoms of a severe allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching, swelling), seek medical help right away.
Precautions
Do not take Lisinopril if you are allergic to lisinopril or any other ACE inhibitor. Avoid using Lisinopril if you are pregnant, as it can harm the unborn baby. Inform your doctor about your medical history, especially if you have kidney disease, liver disease, or diabetes. It is important to mention all the medications you are currently taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, to avoid potential interactions.
Package leaflets
Read package leaflet closely before using Lisinopril.
