And the *sartan drugs are ARBs which are commonly prescribed for BP. My mom and brother are allergic to *prils. Causes a crazy amount of fluid to build up in their body. Almost killed my mom from fluid around her heart and lungs before the doctors figured it out. Don’t take these drugs lightly.

I took Lisinopril for quite a while, but developed the nagging dry cough that it is known to cause. I switched BP meds after that. I tried Lisinopril for a month at the end of 2021 and the cough came back within a few days. So I used up that 30 day supply and decided I’m done with that. I didn’t experience any fluid problems.

I’ve kicked up my exercise, losing some weight, and have gotten BP med dosages down quite a bit.
