Dr. answered

Possibly: How long have you been taking it or is it a new exposure? Is it an ACE inhibitor (antihypertensive medication that ends in -pril?) Are you having any respiratory problems? If you are having lip swelling that might be an allergic reaction or angioedema....you should go to the ED.
