Is Hydrochlorothiazide A Good Alternative Of Lisinopril?

I ve been diagnosed with lupis, and put on plaquinil. I have been taking lisinopril for years. I m concerned that my lupis is drug induced and so I m switching to Hydrochlorothiazide 12.5 mg. Is this a good replacement for lisinopril? If it s drug induced how long will it be until I know?
