Lisinopril (Generic of Zestril & Prinivil)

Lisinopril is in a group of drugs called angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors.

Lisinopril is the generic of Zestril & Prinivil.

The medicine is supplied as Lisinopril 5 mg, Lisinopril 10 mg, and Lisinopril 20 mg and is easily available from Canada Pharmacy.

Take Lisinopril exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Follow patient instructions for safe and effective use. Take each dose with a full glass of water. Lisinopril can be taken with or without food. Your doctor may occasionally change your dose to make sure you get the best results. Do not change the dosage duration or the dosage amount without the advice of your physician.

Each tablet also contains inactive ingredients that include calcium phosphate, mannitol, magnesium stearate, and starch.
