Description

Lisinopril, commonly marketed under the brand name Prinivil, is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor medication used primarily to treat hypertension (high blood pressure) and heart failure. Each package contains 30 tablets of lisinopril.

Key Features:

  • Blood pressure control: Lisinopril helps to lower blood pressure by inhibiting the action of angiotensin-converting enzyme, which normally causes blood vessels to narrow. This widening of blood vessels reduces blood pressure.
  • Heart failure management: In addition to its antihypertensive effects, Prinivil is also used to improve survival rates and reduce symptoms in individuals with heart failure.
  • Kidney protection: Lisinopril may also provide kidney protection in individuals with diabetes or other conditions that increase the risk of kidney damage.

Usage Instructions:

  • The dosage of Lisinopril varies depending on the condition being treated, its severity, and individual patient response. It is crucial to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
  • For hypertension, the typical starting dose for adults is 10mg orally once daily, with adjustments made based on blood pressure response.
  • For heart failure, the dosage may be lower initially, starting with 2.5mg to 5mg orally once daily, with gradual titration to achieve optimal dose.
  • Lisinopril tablets should be swallowed whole with a glass of water, with or without food.

Precautions:

  • Inform your healthcare provider about any pre-existing medical conditions or ongoing medications before starting Lisinopril.
  • Use caution if you have a history of certain kidney conditions, as Lisinopril may further impair kidney function, particularly in individuals with bilateral renal artery stenosis.
  • Lisinopril may cause fetal harm if used during pregnancy. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.

Side Effects: While Lisinopril is generally well-tolerated, some individuals may experience the following side effects:

  • Dizziness
  • Cough
  • Fatigue
  • Headache
  • Nausea
  • Hypotension (low blood pressure)
  • Hyperkalemia (high potassium levels)

If any of these side effects persist or worsen, inform your healthcare provider promptly. Additionally, seek immediate medical attention if you experience signs of a severe allergic reaction such as rash, itching/swelling (especially of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, or trouble breathing.
