HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
Lisinopril can cause headaches and occasional rash in some persons who use this medication.
You can consider discussing this possibility with your doctor. He or she may consider switching to an alternative blood pressure medication to see if your symptoms resolve.
Blood tests such as a complete blood count and ESR may be needed to check for other possible causes.
I hope this helps
