Understanding the Common Side Effects of Lisinopril (sold under the brand names: Zestril or Prinivil), • Welcome to our educational video by Dr. Lukasz Kiljanek, a Board Certified Nephrologist, Hypertension Specialist, and Internal Medicine physician. • Lisinopril a widely prescribed medication for high blood pressure (hypertension), heart failure or kidney disease. While it is highly effective, it's important to be aware of potential side effects. In this video, we'll discuss common side effects. • Cough: Some people might experience a persistent dry cough while taking lisinopril. If you develop a cough, let your healthcare provider know. There are other medications that provide almost the same benefits as lisinopril but may not cause a cough. • Dizziness: Dizziness can happen, especially if your blood pressure lowers too much or if you are dehydrated. • High Potassium level: Lisinopril can cause your potassium levels to become high. Your healthcare provider will likely monitor your potassium levels, usually 3-4 weeks after starting lisinopril or increasing the dose of lisinopril to make sure potassium stays within a safe range. • Increased creatinine level: Creatinine level can go up, and this sometimes indicates that the medication is actually working. Blood work will be needed to monitor creatinine levels to ensure it remains within safe ranges, usually 3-4 weeks after starting lisinopril or increasing the dose of lisinopril. • Hair Loss (Alopecia): While not common, some people might experience hair loss, also known as alopecia, when taking lisinopril. If you notice hair loss, discuss this with your healthcare provider to determine the cause and explore alternative treatments if necessary. • Always notify your healthcare provider if you develop any side effects or have any concerns or questions about your medication. They can provide the best advice and support for your specific situation. • • Disclaimer: • This video is for educational purposes only.
