Lisinopril is used to treat high blood pressure and heart failure. It decreases certain chemicals that tighten the blood vessels, so blood flows more smoothly and the heart can pump blood more efficiently.

This medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

Do not take Lisinopril if you are pregnant. If you become pregnant while taking Lisinopril, call your doctor immediately.
