Brief Answer: Usual side effects. Wait for few days. Body adjust Detailed Answer: Hello, I have gone through your query and understand your concern. These are the usual side effects by Lisinopril. It does not warrant any withdrawal or stopagge of the drug. These symptoms will be there for few days to weeks. These usually improve as your body adjusts to the Lisinopril. To deal with abdominal pain, take non spicy and bland diet for few days. Getting up more slowly from bed or chair should help. If you begin to feel dizzy, lie down so that you do not faint, then sit for a few moments before standing. Cough is bothersome but this can also be come in control in few days as body your adjust to the new medicine. Thus these symptoms does not warrant to stop the medication.
