Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

Your blood pressure values are a little low. This may be related to the lisinopril tablet that you took before.

Anyway, the situation is not very concerning.

I recommend taking an coffee to help increase your blood pressure. A lot of fluids will also help.

I would advise to have some rest in the next hours and avoid straining physical activity.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above issues. You may need to stop taking lisinopril in the future if your blood pressure values keep dropping in the next days after taking lisinopril.

Hope to have been helpful!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
