❓ Frequently Asked Questions

What is the correct lisinopril starting dose?
The typical lisinopril starting dose for hypertension is 10 mg once daily. For patients on diuretics, renal impairment, or volume depletion, start at 5 mg or 2.5 mg. For heart failure, starting dose is 2.5-5 mg once daily. Dose is titrated based on blood pressure response every 2-4 weeks.
What is the maximum lisinopril dose?
Maximum lisinopril dose for hypertension is 40 mg once daily. For heart failure, maximum is 40 mg once daily. Higher doses increase risk of side effects including hypotension, renal impairment, and hyperkalemia. Most patients achieve target BP at 20-40 mg daily.
What are the side effects of lisinopril?
Common side effects: dry cough, dizziness, headache, hypotension. Serious but rare: angioedema (swelling of face, lips, tongue), hyperkalemia, renal impairment, neutropenia. Seek emergency care if you experience swelling of face/throat or difficulty breathing.
What should I monitor while taking lisinopril?
Monitor: Blood pressure regularly, kidney function (creatinine/eGFR), potassium levels, and signs of angioedema. Check labs 2-4 weeks after starting or changing dose, then every 6-12 months. Report dry cough - may require switching to ARB.
