Ic Lisinopril Side Effects

Updated

I am currently taking IC Lisinopril-HCTZ 25MG. and i have erectile disfunctions. I found a male enhancement called Vim-25 and it works for me but, i actually took it before reading the package. It mentions that people with high blood pressure shouldn't take the drug or contact a doctor to see if it's safe. I cant ever get a response from doctor about the situation when i call because he is constantly busy. So can you please give me some enlightment on this situation.

Vim-25 is a natural supplement that is claimed to help with erectile dysfunction.

Being a natural product, that is not actually proven to do anything, the side effect or interaction profiles have not been studied and they have to put that warning on the label for people suffering from health problems. Because they actually don't know how it may affect you.

Some herbal products are more potent than actual drugs and can elevate your blood pressure or heart rate.

if you're suffering erectile dysfunction, which blood pressure medications are well-known to cause, you should actually contact your doctor about your concerns about that, rather than about using the Vim-25.

There other medications you can try that do not cause as many side effects, such as Atacand HCT:

Are there any other comments or questions?

First, let set the record straight, I smoke cigars weekly (do not inhale), I drink scotch (several) with my cigars and my libido has been great. Visited the doctor and he told me that I needed to go on lisinopril hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg. After several weeks, I had 50% ED, and after a couple more months, I was totally toast. Finally after a while I visited the doctor and explained it to him. I got the "well this can happen to guys your age!". After a bit of me not taking his nonsense, he switched me over to amlodipine besyate 5 mg. I was on this for ~1 month where I made another visit to his office after printing off a bunch of articles that noted that everything he was telling me before was nonsense and I wasn't alone in my thoughts. So after I told him with no uncertain stance that the medicine was my problem, he then said to try something simple- lisinopril 20mg by itself! -NO thiazide diuretic (water pill). After 3 days, I was back to ~50% recovery. After 1 one week, I was back to ~75%, and after 3 weeks, I was 95+% and that's about where I have stayed. But going from nothing to 95%..... yeah!!!! And all this time the doctor was blaming my age, drinking, smoking, etc. cause he said he had not heard anyone else complaining. Sorry, but maybe most had doctors like mine that didn't give it a second thought that MAYBE..... they were wrong! So as I call it to the doctor, plan c is working! I have my followup next week and I'm going to have a LONG discussion with him!
