Fellow listers,

I've been diagnosed as midly hypertensive and as such have been prescribe 5mg. of Lisinopril per day.  Does anyone know how this will affect passing a standard 3rd class medical?



Thanks

Looks encouraging. See www.leftseat.com/medcat1.htm and search for Prinivil,

Prinzide, Zestril, Zestoretic or Lisinopril. They are about 2/5th of the way

down the page.

Ray:



Read the side effects closely.  Lisinopril gave me a persistent dry  

cough that only ended 2 months after switching to a different med.

The dry cough is usually a minor thing.  It occurs in about 20% of patients, and can by eliminated by switching to another class of medicine, as was mentioned.



Ray...Lisinopril is, overall, a great drug, and you are taking a low dose.  The key is whether it is adequately controlling your blood pressure.  If so, you will have no problems with your medical clearance, as long as there are no other serious issues.

Ray,

Call or visit the doctor that does your flight physical as a 

pre-physical consult for an answer.

Then it's up to you to decide if you want to continue take the stuff, or 

he can prescribe something better..

MILDLY hypertensive shouldn't get you in trouble. I think you can get away with about 155 over 90 or so.
