" Hey celineD,

I've taken Lisinopril (10 mg)for years. The only things I've noticed is that I take it at bedtime as I noticed that I was a little sluggish during the day if I took it in the morning. Also, if I raise my arms up right over my head I sometimes get a little dizzy. But apart from that it has been pretty good at keeping my bp down and managing the PKD. "
