I’ve been on Lisinopril 6 weeks. I became lethargic with serious brain fog and light headedness. I also had pain in my joints. I was told it would get better but honestly it got much worse. I started having extreme panic attacks that left me drained and thinking I was insane. I almost checked into a hospital before I learned about this side effect. Starting today I will no longer take lisinopril or any meds for blood pressure. Hopefully I will get better in a few days and will do natural things like diet and exercise to lower blood pressure!

@musicguy - Thanks for sharing. I've been on lisinopril for years, what about 3 months ago develop the same symptoms you describe. Very lightheadedness or dizzy, and tired. Every told me it's not the medication. Because I had been on it for years without a problem. Could you?Please let me know if your symptoms clear up? I'm going to discontinue these temporarily and call my Dr. Thank you!

@musicguy if you stop all anti hypertensive medications you run the risk of developing serious other illnesses like kidney disease, eye issues any place you have small vessels can be effected. If you cannot control it with diet and exercise you will do yourself no favors by not using something to help yourself.
