Auro-Lisinopril 20 mg

AURO-LISINOPRIL 20 MG tablets contain lisinopril dihydrate, an ACE inhibitor used for managing high blood pressure and heart conditions. This medication is manufactured by AURO Pharma Inc. in Canada.

Lisinopril is commonly used to treat high blood pressure (hypertension) and improve survival after a heart attack. It works by relaxing blood vessels, making it easier for the heart to pump blood. Lisinopril may also be prescribed for other heart-related conditions as determined by a healthcare provider.

Common effects of lisinopril may include dizziness, headache, and cough. Some users might experience fatigue or lightheadedness, especially when starting the medication. These effects vary among individuals and typically subside as the body adjusts to the treatment.

Lisinopril should be handled with care, especially for those with kidney disease, liver problems, or a history of angioedema. It is important to follow the guidance of a healthcare provider regarding its use. Pregnant women should avoid lisinopril due to potential risks to the fetus.

Lisinopril may interact with certain medications, including diuretics, NSAIDs, and potassium supplements. Alcohol consumption should be moderated, as it can enhance the blood pressure-lowering effects. Always consult a healthcare provider before combining lisinopril with other medications.
