fosinopril lowered my blood pressure adequately but, I did get a cough from it and after about 1.5 years was diagnosed with kidney cancer, had nephrectomy 10/3. will never know if cancer was related to fosinopril.

Comment:
Been taking Lisinopril 20 mgs for 2 yrs. Blood pressure has now shot way up with massive headaches. Was put on fosinopril 40 mgs for the last month. My pressure has gone down a little to about 150/106 and I still have headaches on top of my head. Will be seeing doctor in a week if things don't change.
