Can Lisinopril Cause Rashes And Hives? Can Clonidine Be Used To Revert The Effects?
I have been on lisinopril for over 2 years, is it possible to now be experiencing the side effects of rash and hives?
I also take clonidine, for the past several months I've struggling with terrible itching, rashy hive like patches on my entire body. Is it possible that my medications are a cause of this problem?
I'm currently unemployed and have no health coverage. I really need some help treating this issue. I have been on both medications for just over 1 year.
