Started with 1/2 tab morning and night, with no ill effects, and began feeling better. Titrated up to a full tab twice a day, and have had persistent dry cough, all night, every night ever since. My doctor is lowering the dosage and may change the med.

This Rx was first prescribed for my 12 year-old, 14 lb.dog for diagnosed atrioventricular valvular insufficiency or dilated cardiomyopathy. She has taken it once a day every day for about 1.5 years. It seems to have been somewhat successful at slowing the inevitable advance of the disease. Only recently was her heart determined to be further enlarging. While she has only recently had a new medication added to her Enalapril Maleate Oral the life expectancy and quality of life have been better with than, without. Her prognosis with the new medication (pimobendan/VetMedin) has promise of extending her quality and expectancy of life by 9 months to 2+years.Read More Read Less

After having an arterial blockage and a stent 11 months ago, I have been on numerous medications and I'm not sure which side effect is from which medication. At first my blood pressure was low but now it's high, I have coughing, metallic taste, and the most recent is excessive hair loss. I'm thankful for the medications but also overwhelmed with these and other side effects.

I have been using 20 mg in am and 10 mg in pm for a couple of years. I now have low blood pressure which is very uncommon for me.

I have had to reduce the dosage over the past years because of LOW blood pressure symptoms. I didn't think that kidneys "regained" function, but it appears that this is the case with me!
