Can lisinopril cause sinus infections? Age: 65 Ht: 6 Wt: 185 High BP for several years tried atenolol (nightmares), cardura (ineffective), then linsinopril which was very effective in lowering BP (120s/80s). However after about 2 months developed severe headaches. Temporarily switched to micardis, MRI detected sinus infection, taking cefdinir 300 mg for infection. I like what I read about micardis and want to make a case for staying with it for BP. So is it likely that lisinopril contributed to my sinus infection?
Lisinopril has nothing to do with the sinus infection it's just a coincidence continue antibiotic for the sinus infection and consult a ENT physician if still persists
