Avatar f tn I called my doctor and the nurse said i had the symptoms of axiety but also said to stop taking the Lisinopril. I have not taken that pill in 24 hrs. My question is could the Lisinopril have caused the palpitations and could it take some time to go away or should i look into axiety. It just seems odd that none of this was going on untill i took that Lisinopril.
Avatar m tn I would like to know if these are side effects of the meds or if it is possible i have some disease that affects my joints/disks as well as raises my BP?
Avatar m tn Yes, I've only been on it a week and I experience the muscle aches and bilateral flank pain as well. In addition, insomnia!
Avatar f tn First doses of lisinopril can cause dizziness due to a drop in blood pressure. Lisinopril can cause nausea, headaches, anxiety, insomnia, drowsiness, nasal congestion and sexual dysfunction. Lisinopril should be stopped if there are symptoms or signs of an allergic reaction including feelings of swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat. Severe allergic reactions (anaphylaxis) and hives occasionally occur.
Avatar m tn I have a friend who was taking lisinopril, and everytime he tried to do anything that required a bit of energy, such as walking through his house, his BP dropped to the point of taking him to his knees. He has since quit taking the lisinopril, but the effects most likely will be with him for the rest of his life. My husband was on lisinopril for approx. 6 months, and one day he had a total crash. He was on his kness, power vomiting, and had to be rushed to the ER.
Avatar f tn Hi, as such there is no direct co relation of kidney pain with lovastatin which is mainly metabolized through liver. What are the other drugs you are on? Main side effects of lovastatin are myopathy and liver disorder. For more information visit http://www.rxlist.com/cgi/generic/lovastat_ad.htm Wait for blood reports, need to assess kidney function. Also get ultrasound done to rule out any pathology of urinary tract.
Avatar f tn Your doctor may be increasing based on the blood pressure response and consideration to side effects of lisinopril, the dosage may be increased or decreased. For most people, the normal daily dose is 20 mg to 40 mg. For each change in your lisinopril dosage, it may take several weeks to see the full effects on blood pressure. Hope this helps and your blood pressure is properly controlled without side effects. Thanks for the question.
1210142 tn?1266077031 Hello, My name is Anatoly Petrov and I have I had a heart attack on 09/21/09. After my bare metal stents were clogged and I almost got another heart attack, a DES was placed inside those two. Since then I have been having chest pains. I am currently on Plavix, Aspirin, Simvastatin, Lisinopril and Carvedilol/Coreg/. Stopped Lisinopril for a little bit and felt much better- unfortunately my blood pressure went a little up.
Avatar f tn t had any other problems with Lisinopril besides the cough and I am scared to change meds and take the chance of worse side effects. I am just wondering if anybody has any thoughts on Lisinopril vs Losartan to help me decide if I should change meds. Thanks!!!
Avatar f tn This last week, I am feeling very good other than the med side effects. You mentioned that you have had some severe side effects, what are your effects like please? I am going to a new doctor on Thursday for a second opinion on the meds and regarding the ICD that the other cardio wants me to consider. Thanks for posting your notes and for any advice you may have on the toprol.
Avatar f tn Look the drug up that she is taking on the web to see if cough is listed as a common side effect. Before you do this though, don't get overly concerned with all of the side effects you see related to a drug when you do search. All possible side effects observed when trials are done on drugs are listed even if they are not caused by the drug. Some blood pressure drugs do cause cough though in many people. The drug with the most likely side effect of cough as I understand it is lisinopril.
Avatar n tn ve been taking Lisinopril for going on 8 years with no apparent side effects and my blood pressure is very good. Both subject medications is recommended for heart failure patients ACE raises blood pressure by constricting blood vessels. ACE inhibitors like enalapril prevent this effect. Enalapril has been shown to lower the death rate in systolic heart failure as does Lisinopril.
Avatar f tn One known side effect of lisinopril is a dry nagging cough, however, I'm not sure about the itchy throat. You may want to call your pharmacist and ask them - they're typically very knowledgeable about all side effects of meds.
1608566 tn?1298196868 Ally saw heart nurse and dialysis nurse, one says "no it is not the beta blocker" the kidney nurse is changing his kidney regime because she says it could be draining to much fluid from him making him have headaches and what ever. Still struggling, he should be feeling much better by now but he is not. I will keep in touch, thanks for answering.
645800 tn?1466860955 I dropped lisinopril for entirely unrelated side effects -- that nasty dry cough / throat tickle thing that woke me up every night.
Avatar n tn I was just put on coreg since june6th and have been having severe headaches from it and tiredness. Is there any side effects between these three that can give me these headaches? I was fine until I was out on coreg.
Avatar n tn ACE inhibitor medicines have as one of their adverse side effects, the ability to cause cough in an individual who has not previously had a cough; a cough that persists as long as the medicine is taken. You should share this occurrence with your doctor and he/she will probably want to prescribe another blood pressure medicine, not in the ACE inhibitor class. It may take 3 to 4 weeks for the cough to subside, following discontinuation of the medicine.
961503 tn?1247059639 My doctor wanted me to not start them both at the same time so that I can see, if any, side effects Sim will have - and once I start the Lisinopril, I can see what different, if any, side effects both pills could have. So far, with the Sim I have felt a little heat rushes - perhaps 3 times, but nothing else. My question is: can I exercise while on these pills? Before the pills, I biked weekly about 3 miles - nothing serious, just riding around my town.
Avatar n tn s also had 7 kidney stones in the last 5 months. Could Lisinopril and his excessive sweating be a contributing factor?
