Lisinopril should be used cautiously in the following cases: Low blood pressure or fainting, as some people may feel dizziness caused by a drop in blood pressure during the first few days of taking this medication. For this reason, the first dose is preferably taken at bedtime, and the initial dose should be administered under medical supervision in the hospital for patients over 70 years old. Cases of low blood pressure, or severe hypertension. Cases of low fluid or electrolyte levels in the blood. Unstable heart failure. Kidney problems. Taking high doses of diuretics or other medications that dilate blood vessels. Tasks that are risky, such as driving or operating machinery, should be avoided if feeling dizzy. Alcohol may also enhance the blood pressure-lowering effect of this medication, increasing dizziness and possibly the risk of fainting. Cases of angioedema, which can occur at any time during treatment (especially after the first dose). If the patient experiences difficulty breathing or swallowing, or swelling of the face, lips, tongue, throat, hands, feet, or ankles while taking this medication, they should inform the doctor. This medication should not be used in patients with a history of angioedema related to previous treatment with angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors. Blood pressure, kidney function, and potassium levels should be monitored regularly during treatment. A dry cough may occur with the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, usually within the first few months of therapy, and stops within 1-4 weeks after discontinuing the medication. Other causes of cough should be considered and ruled out before stopping this medication. It should also be used cautiously in the elderly and children. Cases of narrowing of the arteries supplying the kidneys (renal artery stenosis), low body fluid volume due to diuretic use, dialysis, diarrhea, vomiting, or dehydration. Cases of atherosclerosis, narrowing of the main artery in the body (aortic stenosis), narrowing of one of the heart valves (mitral valve), and diabetes. Diseases affecting connective tissue, such as lupus erythematosus or rheumatoid arthritis. Pregnancy, as it affects the fetus. Breastfeeding, as it passes into breast milk. Low blood pressure may not necessarily require stopping the use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors in the future, especially in patients with heart failure, as the decrease in systolic blood pressure is a desirable effect.
