I was prescribed Lisinopril for borderline high blood pressure, starting at 10mg. Despite its effectiveness in lowering my blood pressure, the medication caused overwhelming side effects: weakness, lethargy, drowsiness, heart palpitations, fatigue, and more. These symptoms significantly impacted my daily life. After 25 days, I decided to gradually taper off the medication, experiencing relief from some side effects. While my blood pressure remains stable, I still struggle with withdrawal symptoms like coughing and nausea. I’ve made dietary improvements and found solace in online communities sharing similar experiences. It’s crucial to question prescriptions when necessary and support each other on our journeys to better health. Wishing good health to all seeking answers.
