Yes, they are the same thing, Lisinop is just an abbreviation, I think one generic company used that as the name for their version of the product. After a med is released for generic production, generally after it has been on the market for about 5 years, other companies that make it can name it something if they wish, or just call it by the generic name, which is the pharmaceutical term for the active ingredient.

Husband developed a high fever last night, after feeling faint several times throughout the day. Could the fever also be a side effect of Lisinop?

i previously took lisinopril for high blood pressure and had to be taken off of it becuase I experienced swollen lips and throat almost every other month or two. I wasn't made aware of this until about 2 months ago I had to go to the ER because I was experiencing severe swelling of my throat and was hard for me to breathe thats when the ER physician informed me that it was probably the lisinopril causes the swelling even though I had been taking it for over 2 years.

Allow your body to be your guide in regards to the exact amount you should take of this drug. My doctor started me out at 1 tab a day (Lisinop/HCTZ 10/12.5TAB) but when I noticed my blood pressure dropping below 100 over 72, I began taking one tablet every other day and this worked much better.

I have been on Lisinop/hctz 10-12 for two weeks. The pharmacist told me about the tickle-cough, which I do have. But how long does the med take to start lowering blood pressure. My numbers have been jumping all over.

This medication, Lisinop/HCTZ, is horrible. I started taking it two days ago, and, this morning at the gym, I vomited violently and nearly fainted. Since then, I've been coughing and vomiting all day. I'm lethargic and feverish. I read the side effects and noticed that it discourages any activites that cause excessive sweating. If the patient is to lead a sedentary life while taking this med., imagine what other maladies would develop in place of the high blood pressure! This is absurd!

It was my understanding from my physician that lisinop also contains a diuretic. This was an issue for me for several days after beginning the medication, but it has gotten better.

I just started taking this about a week ago. I'm on the lowest dosage. No severe side affects at all. Some mild dizziness, and I had a mild headache yesterday that might be because of it. My blood pressure is a lot better too.

My dose is 20-12.5 X 2, daily. I developed the cough but it has been very effective at controlling my BP. I get nausea at night when I cough very hard but no other side effects.

I take Lisinop/HTC and also have a mild cough as some have mentioned. My sough is usually when I lay down at night, just a tickle in my throat that I take a throat sough drop or cough syrup (maybe 1/4 teaspoon, extrememly small dosage), just to relieve the tickle. I have been experiencing muscle cramps since taking the medication. Nothing too severe though, mostly cramping in the rib cages. You know it seems to me that most of the people posting to this website do not ask questions before taking new medications. I asked my doctor of all of the known side affects and researched them myself before taking a single pill.

Here are the listed side affects: Generally, side effects of lisinopril are mild and either require no treatment or are easily treated. Common side effects include chest pain, stomach pain, and fatigue. Rare side effects include heart palpitations, pancreatitis, and unexplained weight loss. Some side effects of lisinopril should be reported immediately to your healthcare provider, such as difficulty breathing or swallowing, unexplained skin rash, and unexplained swelling of the hands or feet. Please for everyone's sake, research any medication prior to taking.

I hope this helps with some of the questions and have a happy day.
