Zestoretic (lisinopril and hydrocholorthiazide): The drug may be responsible for your cough. Maybe your doctor can give a different medication.

Stop the ACEI (zest): Acei cause a buildup in bradykinin levels in the body. This chemical can elicit a dry persistent cough in 10% of patients. Would consider an alternative choice for med. Make sure secondary causes of hypertension have been ruled out as well.
