 1  High Blood Pressure Chest Pain, High anxiety, Shortness of Breath, Heart Racing, Dizziness,Nausea/ Vomiting, Brain fog, Fatigue, Muscle aches I'm so glad I found this and other reviews. I thought I was going crazy the last several weeks, two ER trips, one urgent care visit and my delusional doc visit. My doctor wanted to double my dose which was too high to begin with so he put me on a water pill, that almost killed me. I've been thinking something is seriously wrong with me and yet they can't find any issues. My quality of life has been horrible and looking at the drug facts hasn't helped any. Today I decided to search reviews, holy eye opening experience and I'm so glad others have had the same experiences. Do not take this drug. F 39 6 weeks

 1  High blood pressure Light headed. Flu like symptoms. Extra mucus constantly coming up all sorts of colors and tasting like something toxic. One min I'm hot the next min I'm cold. For TWO whole weeks I've been sick. No appetite. No energy. Sluggish and grumpy all day. Heart constantly fluttering and no breath. This is the worst medicine ever!!! And trust it's other medicines that cause bad side effects as well. I kept my son home today because I couldn't get up and take him to school from lack of energy and nausea. Plz dont allow the doctors to put you on this. Medicine is the devil and they need to stop giving it to ppl. F 27 2 weeks

 1  High BP Coughing, Vomiting, Nauseous, weakness, mucus increase, Asthma problems I started this drug on a low does with out the HCTZ but BP got higher so doc added a higher does and HCTZ.. I was fine for a bit but it was cold season and it seemed I got one cold right after another. Asthma got worse. Coughing and coughing all night. I had to strange boughts of uncontrollable vomiting and dizziness. 1st time at ER I was told it was food poisoning. The next time I did research on the drug and realized that for the last 4 months I have been so sick that it was connected to the Lisinopril HCTZ. Its odd because I had taken a lower does without HCTZ for 2 years. I stopped the drug completely. F 55 4 months

 1  HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE This drug affected my breathing so badly that I ended up on steroids and antibiotics and had to visit hospital to go on a nebuliser. Extreme fatigue,and dizziness that I thought I had something seriously wrong with me. I could not concentrate or think straight and my heart would pound so hard that I thought I was having a heart attack. I made the decision to stop taking this drug and within 3 days all of my symptoms disappeared. This is day 4 without the meds and I feel like I have won the lottery. I have so much energy and my breathing is amazing even though I have asthma and COPD. I really have not felt this well for a long time. Yes my bp has gone up but the Lisinopril was not controlling it anyway. I would rather have quality of life. My gp wants to try other meds but I am not so sure. These drugs are poison!! F 57 9 months

 2  High Blood Pressure Happens like an "episode" lasting only a few minutes or seconds: shortness of breath like if I stopped breathing and I'm gasping for air, rapid heart pulse, foggy head, tightness in throat like mild strangulation, tingly hands, jittery, blurred vision, heat sweats. Today my husband witnessed me turn pale and I almost fainted. My heart was racing, and I was extremely incoherent. He rushed me to the urgent care, EKG test normal. Blood Sugar normal, was told that my primary doc might want to "up the dosage". I just want to stop taking this med, and do things the natural way with exercise and better eating. I'm way too young to be on this med. I have never been diagnosed with any other condition, nor do I take any other medication. I was convinced that since HBP runs in my immediate family (mother, siblings) that I had no other choice to "regulate" it. F 32 4 months

 1  BP Foggy Head, not thinking right. Tightness in throat, pressure like mild strangulation. Face feels like a balloon, eyes feel like pressure behind them. Tingly/pressure sensation in arms hands, stomach feels bloated. Dry Cough constantly when I try to talk, its non stop. Vision feels blurred almost like dementia. I started this medication just 10 days ago for BP. Within 6 days, it sent me to the ER, busted blood vessels in my eyes, my face felt like it was about to pop, and my BP soared to 225/135. took all day in the ER to get my pressure down to reasonable levels. After feeling like this through this week, I decided to get online and read more about what it was I am taking. For crying out loud..why didn't I read this stuff sooner. This drug is poison!
