Hi,
Yes ace inhibitors (Lisinopril) may can cause allergy or angioedema or cough in few patients. You may take antihistamins with steroids to control the allergy. You may consult your treating doctor he may advice alternate medicine for your hypertension.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
