  1. My brother's doctor moved him from 5mg Altace to 10mg
    Lisinopril. It took him a few weeks to become acclimated to
    the change, and now he feels fine and seems to have no minor
    muscle ache side effects that Altace caused. There has been
    much written about the good of Altace. Is there any similar
    findings about Lisinopril?

    It would unusual for Altace to cause muscle aches.

  3. My sister had high BP and went thru numerous blood pressure
    meds. She got bad reactions from Lisinopril: feet swelling,
    really dry mouth, dizzy. She finally ended up with ACEON.
    And, a year before she died, her BP got too low. She quit
    taking any BP at all, then.

    All of them have side-effects. The longer you can avoid that
    [censored], the better. Let us know how things are working with
    you and your med's. I read most every article and I learn
    from other folks, as most I can.

    Folks with hypertension do better with this treated compared
    to untreated.

    "The effects of Prinivil in hypertension and heart failure
    appear to result primarily from suppression of the renin-angiotensin-
    aldosterone system. Inhibition of ACE results in decreased
    plasma angiotensin II, which leads to decreased vasopressor
    activity and to decreased aldosterone secretion."
