I have been taken Lisinopril in 20 MG doses for four months now to control high blood pressure. I must say that the drug has been outstanding at doing just that. However, some side effects that I have experienced have been a very low resistance to colds, cold hands and feet. And also an almost uncontrollable hungar for food particularly when Ifirst awake from a short nap.

My doctor told me when I started on Lisinopril that if I developed a cough I would have to switch to a different medication. She said that it is a possible side effect of the drug and that the only way to get rid of the cough and congestion is to stop taking it. Hope this helps
