Will Taking Entapril And Lovastatin Cause Loss Of Sleep?

Before I retire I take Enalapril and lovastatin. Is this what s making me lose sleep? E.g., I sleep for several hours, awaken for 3-4 hours and fall asleep again for another hour or two. Will this query cost me money? If so, please don t respond. I m on S.S. with a limited income. Thanks.

I read your query and I understand your concern about possible side effects.

However looking at those specific drugs I don't think they are the cause of your sleep troubles, they are not known to have any effect on sleep quality. Other causes must be looked at, like accompanying anxiety issues, regular sleep hygiene etc.

And no worry this answer won't require any payment on your part.

I hope to have been of help.
