Hi Ships, and welcome.
Everyone is different. A medication may work for some people and not for others. Lisinopril is an effective medicine "used to treat high blood pressure. Lowering high blood pressure helps prevent strokes, heart attacks, and kidney problems. It is also used to treat heart failure and to improve survival after a heart attack. Lisinopril belongs to a class of drugs known as ACE inhibitors. It works by relaxing blood vessels so blood can flow more easily." https://www.webmd.com/drugs/2/drug-6873-9371/lisinopril-oral/lisinopril-oral/details

Is Lisinopril working well for you? How long have you been taking it?
