List Of Things Not To Take With Lisinopril (Page 4)

What is not allowed while taking lisinopril; food, drugs or drinks.

REPORT

Many bp issues are no more than food sensitivities. Most doctors are clueless about nutrition so they just medicate you. The best way to tell is if your blood pressure is perfectly normal at times and then very elevated at other times. This is something you are eating. You need to do food sensitivity testing and monitor what you're eating closely.

Re: shar (# 10)

Has your doctor tested your PTH (parathyroid ) levels? Your symptoms could all be explained (as my similar ones were) by a non-cancerous parathyroid (NOT thyroid) adenoma (or enlargement). The diagnosis can be suggested first by a blood test, and then confirmed by a Dexascan and possibly a nulcear medicine scan as follow up. Once removed, in a minimally invasive surgery, depression, fatigue, digestive issues, acid reflux, and several other seemingly unrelated symptoms will be reversed!

Re: linda (# 15)

It seems to take 48 hrs to change affect. If taking once, try taking half morning and night. Or cut one dose in half. 4 different doctors were over dosing me. Finally dropped the hctz to straight lisinopril. Then 20 mg x2 to 10x2 then 5x2. Finally settled on 5 and 7 1/2 daily. Avoiding excedrin which spikes+20/10.

Re: tommy johnson (# 3)

if you are adequately hydrated and urinating fine there is no reason to worry about too much dietary potassium intake with average doses of lisinopril. So eat the bananas. It becomes a problem if your kidneys are effected or have insufficiency and your MD should be following it with regular blood tests. What is nice with lisinopril is that it is a second line drug for hypertension and the most often first line drug is a diuretic. Diuretics cause potassium loss directly related to the type and amount of the drug. So a low dose diuretic with a lowish dose of lisinopril offset each other enough that their is no net gain or loss of potassium from each. However, if you are on high doses of a diuretic such as Lasix or high doses of Lisinopril, say 40mg per day-rare. Then certainly be aware of potassium derangement and discuss this with your pharmacist and of course the person subscribing these- your MD or Nurse practitioner.

Re: Aramei Razo (# 16)

Well, I'm not a doctor, but I have taken 20mg ofLisinopril before and had side effects. I lowered the dosage to 10 mg and seemed ok with that. It could have been too strong of dosage.
