It may be possible that your increased urine frequency may be due to your anti hypertensive drug lisinopril. Try to cut down on your salt and fat intake and look for healthier alternatives which can be searched down in the internet. Even get a blood sugar test done to check if you have developed diabetes mellitus, which is also one of the common reasons for increased frequency of urination. And also try to reduce smoking if at all you do it, because it is also of the risk factors for many cancers even bladder.
