A member asked:

I'm 7 weeks pregnant (took lisinopril) and not sure about keeping the baby. do some babies come out fine or are the risk of defects such a high risk?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cat C drug: Lisinopril is considered a category c drug during the first 2 trimesters, meaning no known human fetal problems have been seen with its use. It moves into a category d (possibly dangerous) in the final trimester.

Dr Sparacino and another doctor agreed
