Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was recently put in lisinopril. Now about eight times a day, my epiglottis gets an intense tickle that sends me in to a fit of coughing. I cough until I get a headache and almost vomit. Some times I have to lean over a trash can and saliva pours forth for several minutes I am so close to vomiting. I heard this medicine can have coughing as a side effect, Could this be it?
The most common side effect of Lisinopril is persistent cough. I suggest to discuss with your doctor to take another medicine. Sometimes, it takes several days that cough goes away after you have stopped Lisinopril.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Blerina Pasho, General & Family Physician
