How low is too low to take my blood pressure medicine?i started lisinopril for hypertension months ago. occasionally, when i take my bp before taking the med, my bp is a little low. should i not take it, or half, when it's lower than normal?ex:100/75?

Your blood pressure is normal, not low, because you are taking the medication regularly. So if you hold the medication you defeat the purpose. However, when symptoms of low blood pressure develop the dose can be adjusted by then.

Take the medicine as prescribed and check BP only occasionally as it is very labile and small variations do occur normally. You'll be fine
