Question 2

how do i withdraw from lisinopril?

Accepted Answer

check with your doc: You can just stop it - there's no rebound. Why are you stopping it? If you have high blood pressure, you may need a substitute. If you have congestive heart failure, it may get worse. If you're on a diuretic, you may develop low potassium. This should be done with your doctor's supervision. That's why it's a prescription medicine.

Question 8

i accidentally took 160 mg of lisinopril should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

: It partially depends on what dose of lisinopril you have been taking. If you takes 80 mg daily (max dose 40 mg, twice a day), I would say the effect of total dose of 160 mg on your blood pressure will be insignificant. In general, you just have to watch for the symptoms of very low BP such as faint, lightheadedness, palpitation, drowsy, etc. Drink chicken broth + stay in bed if symptomatic.
