Why Does Lisinopril Attract So Many Negative Reviews Despite Being Highly Recommended?

I just started taking Lisinopril and it has already lowered my BP 124/75. It usually would stay around 140/90. I have had no side effects. I put off taking BP Med. for 3 years. I am only taking 2.5 mg. From your experience do most people due well with this drug. I read it it in the top ten medicines prescribed in the world. So many people put negative reviews about Lisinopril. What do you think? Thanks

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Regarding your concern, I would explain that this is a good tolerated drug in general. Every drug has its adverse effects which are experienced by a small percentage of persons. That small percentage of persons usually rights the bad reviews. But, in my opinion, as you are feeling OK, there is nothing to worry about.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
