I am a 34 y/o male and was at a clinic for an oral abscess.  The RNP prescribed a 10 day regimen of amoxicillin 875mg 1 po bid.  At the same time, she discovered that my BP was extremely elevated (200/110).  I went to the ER, and by then it had dropped to 184/92.  They performed an EKG and re-tested my BP; it had lowered to 164/93.  They prescribed lisinopril 10mg 1 po q d.  I have been taking the lisinopril for 5 days now, but my BP is still elevated and averaging approximately 190/100.  I do not drink alcohol, I quit smoking 3 months ago and limit my sodium intake to 1200mg per day.  Do I need to see my PCP for a possible dose / med adjustment, or is it normal for it to take time for the lisinopril to work?
You have to see a specialist doctor at once as lisinopril do not take time to produce its effect,you may need to change it for something more effective
