Hi,

Your physician is right in telling you that lisinopril has no such known side effect. It seems an entirely different problem unrelated to your use of lisinopril. Hence you should consult your doctor and treatment may be done accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
