HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

If you have already taken the tekturna dose then you can discontinue further use and start the lisinopril the next day.

No additional doses of the tekturna should be used. Once this has been stopped you should be able to safely use the alternate medication after 24 hours.

I hope this helps
