How to control fever from a cold while taking 5mg lisinipril?

Acetominophen: Take Tylenol (acetaminophen) 1000mg every 8 hours until fever resolves. Try to avoid ibuprofen in the setting of an ACE inhibitor such as Lisinopril as the kidneys can suffer transient damage

Fever: usually will respond to acetaminophen like Tylenol. It has no contraindication to Lisinopril
