Question : Are there any (male) sexual performance side effects from a 40 MG daily dose of Lisinopril

Answered by Dr. Ralph Chambers (25 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Erectile dysfunction and loss of sexual interest can occur with Lisinopril

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

In general, there are no sexual performance side effects from lisinopril, rarely it can cause either erectile dysfunction or a loss of sexual interest. If you're having a problem with the medication, let your doctor know since there are a variety of other blood pressure medications, like verapamil, that would likely not give you the same problem.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.
