Should a patient who is experiencing low blood pressure, but who has been on Lisinopril for high blood pressure, stop the Lisinopril? He has been on a dose of 5mg. per day. May he stop it all at once? Take one-half the dose? Does this drug require a "weaning" process? Since the Lisinopril was ordered years ago, he has lost weight and has b een prescribed other drugs for depression and pain.
