Discuss with doctor: You still have some Lisinopril in your blood, most likely. You may need none or only some of this medication. But that is between you and your physician. Not for strangers on the internet to decide.

Maybe: Should check with your physician. Lisinopril is also used for other reasons such as vascular protection and kidney protection in cardiac and diabetic patients, respectively.
