other medications made me sleepy, this one controls my blood pressure and does not have that effect - there are many medications for blood pressure, look until you find the one that works best for you

I have been taking fosinapril for 30 years and have these symptoms periodically - ringing in the ears, back pain, tired all the time and now found a benign cyst on my kidney and liver.

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.

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.

I developed a cough from using lisinopril and mr dr. put me on fosinopril 10mg one month ago. It seems to control my bp ok but I have developed what I beleive is pain in my right kidney area both front and back within the last couple days. Has anyone else had ant kidney trouble from this or could it be something else for me to look into?

I also have the ringing in the ears constantly. I'm okay in the morning - but by afternoon I usually have heartburn and nausia. I've been on this about 2 years. I think it's time for a change. I'm tired all the time.
