A member asked:

I have recently started taking quinapril for hypertension, what should i know?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Several things: Should know your goal bp. All "prils" may cause a persistent low level cough, may increase your creatinine and potassium level a bit, may cause angioedema ( painless swelling) usually of the facial area. Taking "prils, " diuretics and non steroidal anti inflammatory meds at the same time is risky and i wouldn't do that.
