Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Low Blood Pressure While On Lisinopril?
I am experiencing low blood pressure, varying from 97/54 to 104/70. I believe it may be a symptom of dehydration, but want to know - if it is dehydration, how long would it take for blood pressure to rise back to my usual pressures, generally they run around 116/80 or so. I take 10 mg of Lisinopril daily for prophylactic kidney protection (I am diabetic)
Let me tell you that Lisinopril is an anti-hypertensive and is used in high blood pressure. Please talk to your doctor for dose adjustments or it is better to stop it altogether.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Prabhash Verma, General & Family Physician
