Lisnopril has sexual side effects but are much less than other antihypertensives like atenolol
Lisinopril related sexual side effects, if they appear, improve with continuation of lisinopril treatment, in majority of cases
Till that time one can continue tardalafil instead of sildenafil

Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum .
Lisinopril is a most potent anti hypertensive medicine .
Due to vasodilator effects of lisinopril it develops loss of libido ( erectile dysfunction).
As your BP is normal , so consult your doctor and get his advice regarding the side effects and stopping of drug or other alternative drug.
Good luck.
