  1. Lisinopril Tablets Lisinopril Tabletscontain the active ingredient Lisinopril, an ACE inhibitor. They are used to treat high blood pressure, heart failure, post-heart attack recovery, and kidney issues caused by Type II diabetes with high blood pressure. Lisinopril widens blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and aiding heart function.

  2. What you need to know before you take Lisinopril tablets • If you are allergic to lisinopril or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6). • If you've had an allergic reaction to an ACE inhibitor causing swelling or breathing difficulties (angioedema). • Avoid Lisinopril if you take sacubitril/valsartan, as it raises the risk of angioedema (throat swelling). • if you have diabetes or impaired kidney function and you are treated with a blood pressure lowering medicine containing aliskiren.

  3. Warnings and Precautions of Lisinopril Tablets • If you have a narrowing (stenosis) of the aorta (an artery in your heart) or a narrowing of heart valves (mitral valves). • f you have a narrowing (stenosis) of the kidney artery. • if you have problems with your blood vessels (collagen vascular disease). • if you have low blood pressure. You may notice this as feeling dizzy or light-headed, especially when standing up

  4. How to take Lisinopril tablets Take Lisinopril tablets exactly as prescribed by your doctor or pharmacist, and consult them if unsure. Your doctor may perform blood tests and adjust your dose for optimal results. Swallow the tablet with water, preferably at the same time daily, with or without food. Continue taking it as directed, as it is a long-term treatment. Be cautious with your first dose or dose increases, as they may cause dizziness or light-headedness—lying down can help. Contact your doctor if you have concerns.
