 1  High Blood Pressure Extreme fatigue, tiredness, sleepiness I could not function when taking this drug. I spent entire days sleeping and still it wasn’t enough rest. Muscles were so weak I could barely lift my arm. I didn’t have this side effect with plain Lisinopril, it’s due to the added HCTZ. I added a potassium supplement but it made no difference. F 40 7 days

 4  high blood pressure For the first 3 weeks my body had to adjust: BP went really high (155/90) then low (97/55), off & on feeling very tired & crappy, with a headache each evening. Occasional light headedness. As time went on all the crappy feelings dissipated & by week 4 felt fine & BP was okay at 107/72. No dry mouth,no diarrhea , NO "kennel cough", which I attribute to my taking only 1/2 of the 10mg tablet. That small dose is probably why I don't have that issue. Previously took Maxide for about 5 years but BP started out of control & was given Linsinopril. F 66 2 months
