If it is given to lower BP, one "side effect" is that for every 5 mm Hg lowering of the systolic pressure u decrease ur risk of death by 5% & even better for risk of stroke. Most should always try the DASH diet first. I recommend this book exactly & have for 20 years If OK with ur Dr. Lowers BP in 2 weeks if followed. ISBN 9780743410076 Get app Cronometer & check Na & K intake 2 get 2 goal.

Unless you manifest allergic symptoms like hives or angioedema( (ex: lip swelling) or have kidney disease or elevated potassium level or take potassium sparing meds, I don't think you should be apprehensive about taking lisinopril which is the most frequently prescribed anti hypertensive in the world. 10 mgs is a low dose. Your physician,who knows you best, will guide you.
