Title: lisinopril - Any one used it?
Post by Karla on Mar 1^st, 2006, 1:53pm

It is a blood pressure medicine that my dr just perscribed for me since verapamil and propranolol didn't work for me. I am on the fentanyl patch but am having migraines with araura which is different for me. Plus I went from having 1 evrey 6 months to 8/month last 2 months. Also my ch has broke through and I am having 4 hits a day. The dr thinks the stress from my recent surgery may have caused this. I doubt it. If the medicine doesn't work I get a referal to the ha/pain clinic which was closed the last 2 years. I was suprised to hear it had reopened, but happy. Wish me luck on my new guinee pig andventure. >:(

Good luck?
Flo is probably the one who knows...
but I do know that lisonipril is an Ace inhibitor, propanolol is a beta blocker and verap is a calcium channel blocker. Sorry...that's all I know. :-[

It's has done wonders for my BP and, in its generic form, so inexpensive that it's worth a trial for you.
