WHAT ZESTRIL IS USED FOR
Zestril contains a medicine called
lisinopril. This belongs to a group of
medicines called ACE inhibitors.
Zestril can be used for the following
conditions:
•
To treat high blood pressure
(hypertension).
•
To treat heart failure.
•
If you have recently had a heart
attack (myocardial infarction).
•
To treat kidney problems caused by
Type II diabetes in people with high
blood pressure.
HOW ZESTRIL WORKS
Zestril works by making your blood
vessels widen. This helps to lower
your blood pressure. It also makes it
easier for your heart to pump blood to
all parts of your body.
BEFORE YOU USE ZESTRIL
-
_When you must not use it _
DO NOT TAKE ZESTRIL:
•
if you are allergic (hypersensitive)
to lisinopril or any of the other
ingredients of Zestril.
•
if you have ever had an allergic
reaction to another ACE inhibitor
medicine. The allergic reaction may
have caused swelling of the hands,
feet, ankles, face, lips, tongue or
throat. It may also have made it
difficult to swallow or breathe
(angioedema).
•
if a member of your family has had
severe allergic reactions
(angioedema) to an ACE inhibitor
or you have had severe allergic
reactions (angioedema) without a
known cause.
•
if you are more than 3 months
pregnant (it is also better to avoid
Zestril in early pregnancy – see
_Pregnancy_
section).
If you are not sure if any of these
apply to you, talk to your doctor or
pharmacist before taking Zestril.
If you develop a dry cough which is
persistent for a long time after starting
treatment with Zestril, talk to your
doctor.
