I've been taking Lisinopril for my borderline high Blood Pressure for nearly 20 years with no obvious side effects. I needed to start taking it in order to keep my CDL license and my DOT medical card. It's been doing the job all this time, my BP at the doctor's is always very good. I do take a Krill oil supplement daily as well.

Why does taking Lisinopril required in your case to keep CDL license and your DOT medical card? Does the doctor need to report high blood pressure to authorities?

I stopped taking Lisinopril, Amlodipine and reduced taking Metoprolol from 100 to 50mg. The side effects were doing a job on my body. I take Clonidine 0.1 mg whenever my SYS blood pressure reads 162. I also take Eliquis 5mg twice per day to prevent stroke or a blood clot. I purchased Eliquis from a Canadian pharmacy for $56/180 pills.
