Q: I’m 25, active, not overweight, and I do not smoke. However, I have hypertension and take Lisenopril 15mg. Are there any long term effects of this drug?
A: Medications have side effects but the benefit of having controlled blood pressure outweighs the risks of treatment. It is especially important while taking Lisinopril, an ACE inhibitor, to maintain hydration. Loss of body fluid from excessive sweating, vomiting, or diarrhea can put you at higher risk for a serious side effect.
