A member asked:

How long can you have lisonopril withdrawal symptoms? i have been feeling, dizzy, lightheaded, and light faint since i stopped 1 month ago

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not related: The half life is 12 hours. It is cleared, unchanged, in the urine. In 5 half lives, the medicine is 97% excreted. At one month, there wouldn't be a trace of it in your system. Look for a different cause for your symptoms.
