Too much lisinopril: Although you did not give any information of his disease(s), his kidney function and age, you husband will probably be fine taking the 80 mg dose for one day. Lisinopril (l) is a drug that lowers blood pressure by making the arteries more compliant and it does so over several days. Unless he has a problem with a high potassium, he will probably be fine. The normal dose of l is only 40 mg per day.
