What Dosage Of Lisinopril Should I Take For Borderline Blood Pressure?
I was put on Lisinopril 10 mg yesterday as my BP was 162/98. Today it is 111/69, repeated now and now 104/59 is that ok? I Have been on hydrochlorizide for over a year, did not take that today! Should I half the dosage of Lisinopril? I am 70 and approx 5 ft tall and weigh 165, previous history of anxiety, hyperthyroid and now hypo and asthma controlled! Thank you!

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, you are not suppose to adjust the dose of antihypertensive drug because what the reading of hypertension you have will not cause any symptoms if you have some doubt then blood pressure needs to be measured by doctor and let it decide about this your concern hope this advise and information helps.
