Lisinopril 10mg Tablets

Product Introduction

Lisinopril 10mg is an ACE inhibitor used for high blood pressure, heart failure, post-heart-attack care, or kidney-protection indications such as diabetic kidney disease for lisinopril treatment. It relaxes blood vessels by reducing angiotensin II formation and lowers aldosterone effects, which can reduce blood pressure and strain on the heart. A dry persistent cough is a common reason for switching therapy. Serious but uncommon angioedema can cause swelling of the lips, tongue, face, or throat and needs emergency care.

How to use

Take Lisinopril 10mg once daily as prescribed, at a consistent time. Keep blood pressure, kidney-function, and potassium checks. Avoid potassium salt substitutes unless approved.

How it works

Lisinopril inhibits ACE, reducing angiotensin II and aldosterone activity, which relaxes blood vessels and lowers blood pressure.

Common side effects

Possible effects include dizziness, low blood pressure, dry cough, headache, fatigue, high potassium, and kidney-test changes. Serious concerns include angioedema, severe low blood pressure, kidney injury, and pregnancy-related fetal harm.
