I Hear Some Medications Aren't As Good As Others. What About HCTZ?
I have heard Lisinopril isn't as good as other meds. I wondering about HCTZ because it has Lisinopril in it. I have been taking HCTZ for about 5 years. Can you tell us a little about the meds?
Lisinopril can be deadly I was in ICU for 20 days
I can't take HCTZ because it is harder on my system than Lasix and because of the Lisenopril. You can look up HCTZ on the net and it will give you information on the medicine. Lisenopril gave me a raspy cough that I couldn't get rid of. Finally, it made my throat raw and the doctor took me off. He put me on Losartin, which he said was a "cousin" of Lisenopril.
JohnTaylor, wow you found out the hard way.
Misdiagnoses and primary care put me on lisinopril nearly killed me i came to laying face down in my front yard in the rain ,have no idea how long i was unconcious,long enough i was soaked to the bone and hypothermic, 3days in hospital, still took 6months to get my P.A.H. Diagnoses and right meds .
Going to talk to my doctor, as long as she doesn't try to put me on statins
