Suggest An Alternative Of Lisinopril

Yes, first are you a doctor? And I believe an internist would be the best authority to respond. I was a long term Lisinipril/HCTZ user. Unfortunately I experienced a side affect that no longer makes this drug a choice for me. I am looking for options. Currently, I am taking one HCTZ pill (25 mg) and one aspirin.

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

Lisinopril belongs to group of anti-hypertensives "ACE inhibitors".
You can try Enalapril which belongs to same Group and almost similar efficacy as of Lisinopril and it is better tolerated.
Other options are Captopril and Benzepril.

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