Detailed Answer:
HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Benazepril is the trade name for the anti hypertensive drug lotensin.

There are post marketing reports of paresthesia (abnormal sensation such as tingling).

Side effects of a drug can sometimes be divided generally into premarketing and post marketing.
Premarketing would be those that were discovered when the drug was being actively studied and the post marketing - after it started to be used by patients using the medication.

There have been post marketing reports of abnormal sensations such as tingling. It can decrease in some persons after a few week of use but may persist in others.

if you find that it is continuing and it is disturbing to you then it may be best to speak to your doctor to see if another medication can be used.

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
